While we all collect patches, lets not forget why we became active and (for the most part) continue to remain active in Scouting. Remeber you are making a difference
Collecting New York State OA, one patch at a time.
To share information about new or newly discovered Order of the Arrows patches, flaps, odd-shapes, neckerchiefs, event and chapter issues from New York State Order of the Arrow Lodges, warnings about fakes, spoof, and reproductions and any other information that may be of interest to New York State OA Collectors.
Issue Numbers are subject to change as I become aware of new issues, errors or omissions in listings.

I just wanted to take a moment and thank you for linking to my blog. It is rewarding to see how this blog article has become somewhat popular around the Scouting net. I am glad you found it enjoyable.

Steve,
It did strike a chord, and sometime patch collectors are portrayed in a poor light. But we all joined the program for one main reason and it doesn’t hurt to be reminded of it from time to time.
