Echockotee Lodge 200, new and newly found
Posted in 
The latest piece to come from Florida (aka “God’s Waiting Room”) is out of Echockotee Lodge 200. Saturiwa Chapter has made their first non-camporee patch (R-1), made in memory of a chapter member that passed away on January 17 of this year. The Indian characature was used by Saturiwa’s Shawnee District as far back as the 1970s, and permission was obtained from Mohawk Carpets to use their logo for this patch.
Other recently found obscurities have also come from Echockotee. The first, from Saturiwa Chapter, was for a camporee that was put on in 1998. The “saturn” design is a totem of the chapter. I have been assured that the design in the middle of the patch is an Indian. I will have to take their word for it.
The second is a camporee item for a 1990 event in Marion District, making this a de facto Oklawaha Chapter item, with the sash and diamond anniversary design references.

"Alice laughed: "There's no use trying," she said; "one can't believe impossible things."
"I daresay you haven't had much practice," said the Queen. "When I was younger, I always did it for half an hour a day. Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast."
That’s some “Indian” in the center of the Saturiwa chapter piece!
Robert, John,
Your little Indian friend bears a striking resemblance to a character on two of the chapter neckerchiefs from Thay-En-Da-Ne-Gea Lodge #418. Amsterdam would appear to be the link. I’ll have to post some images on my blog.
