Arrowmen from across the Section will come together for a weekend of games, competitions, and fellowship. Whether you are passionate about ceremonies, interested in meeting new friends, excited for our awesome trainings, or simply looking forward to some high energy patch trading, this event offers something for everyone!! As a bonus, we will also get a chance to vote for our new Sections Officers, in which our former Lodge Chief, and very own, Hagan Rudolf is again running for Section Office. If nothing else, at least come out to support keeping Withlacoochee representation among the Section Officers and leaders of our beloved organization.

We are shooting for the largest contingent we have had in years, and know we can exceed our goal with your support.

For the patch traders - CONCLAVE PATCHES ARE IN!! Those attending Conclave have first shot at purchasing sets, and at a discounted price. Remaining sets will be available to Lodge Members after the event and used for additional Lodge fundraising.

If you have any questions or concerns please reach out to the Lodge Chief or Lodge Advisor. Thank you, and we look forward to seeing you at Moundville Archaeological Park for this incredible weekend!!
