I collect ohio and west virginia conclaves
I have been collecting conclaves since attending my very first conclave in 1972, at Camp Chief Logan. This was the last Area 4F conclave. I have been hooked ever since. This site will be helpful to those wishing to collect Ohio and West Virginia conclaves. While I have posted many images, there are many more to come. I also need images. If you have one I need, please email it to me at: [email protected]. Also, if you wanna trade me something I need, please email me.

At the 1977 NOAC, I went over to the Pre-NOAC traderee. I really learned how much fun this hobby could be. I have been hooked ever since. I collect West Virginia OA, West Virginia CSP / SAP's, and West Virginia and Ohio Conclaves. I have a big big ole CSP collection gathering dust in the basement and I am a number collector for OA Lodges, just one of each, regular issues.
