The 1991 Section NE-5 Conclave was held at Camp Bucoco, hosted by Kuskitannee Lodge #168 and the theme was Stepping Stones to the Future.
As far as I know, there was only a single pocket patch issued for the event.
Were any other items issued for this event?
According to the OA Section List, the following lodges made up NE-5 at this time
- Wagion Lodge #6
- Langundowi Lodge #46
- Kiasutha Lodge #57
- Tanacharison Lodge #67
- Monaken Lodge #103
- Ah’Tic Lodge #139
- Ho-Nan-Ne-Ho-Ont Lodge #165
- Kuskitannee Lodge #168
- Gyantwachia Lodge #255
- Nachamawat Lodge #275

“A people may want a free government; but if, from insolence, or carelessness, or cowardice, or want of public spirit, they are unequal to the exertions necessary for preserving it; if they will not fight for it when it is directly attacked; if they can be deluded by the artifices used to cheat them out of it; if by momentary discouragement or temporary panic, or a fit of enthusiasm for an individual they can be induced to lay their liberties at the feet of even a great man, or trust him with powers which enable him to subvert their institutions; in all cases they are more or less unfit for liberty; and though it may be for their good to have had it even for a short time, they are unlikely long to enjoy it.” – John Stuart Mill, Essays on Representative Government, 1861 & 1862
The patch was the only section item for sale. Langundowi’s contingent had neckties made with their totem on it.
