Lodge 200: S-4S Delegate Patch

Posted in Echockotee 200, Florida Lodges by John E. Pannell on April 19th, 2008 at 8:00 am

200 X26?Several of the S-4S lodges issued odd-shape patches for their delegates to the 2008 S-4S conclave. Collectors are not united in their opinion on how to list lodge delegate patches that are not flaps. Until the listing are officially updated, I have listed them as odd-shapes, “X” issues, in the main body of lodge issues.

Echockotee lodge’s issue is a gray bordered oval. In keeping with the lodge’s sea life theme for its 2008 activity patches, this issue depicts an eel. I have listed this on the site as “X26?”.



"I must study politics and war that my sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy. My sons ought to study mathematics and philosophy, geography, natural history, naval architecture, navigation, commerce and agriculture in order to give their children a right to study painting, poetry, music, architecture, statuary, tapestry, and porcelain."
