Post Conclave Recap

Dear ,

Thank you for your role in making Cardinal Conclave 2019 a successful event. Our final attendance number was 1,558 and we made significant impacts in our service efforts by packing 936 literacy bags for students in Robeson county, donating 26 units of blood, and 483 pounds of nonperishable food items. 2019 Cardinal Conclave was a great event and the section is grateful for Occoneechee’s efforts in supporting and accommodating the event.

Looking forward, the Section Leadership and Klahican Lodge are already beginning our planning efforts for Conclave 2020. Be sure to put the event on your calendars for April 17th-19th , 2020 at Camp Bowers. Registration will open in the Fall, but it’s not too early to get excited about the largest Conclave in the country!

On behalf of the 2019-2020 Section Leadership team, we look forward to meeting you as we visit lodges across the Section and plan another great Cardinival Conclave.

Yours in Cheerful Service
Ethan Syster Section Chief
