Eswau Huppeday S54?

This won’t be news for those who were at the Dixie Fellowship (SR-5 Conclave) last weekend.   Eswau Huppeday has recently issued two more flaps.     One is a new standard issue.   The other is the lodge’s Dixie delegate flap.     Thanks again to Jimmy Arthurs for these.

The Dixie “Delewet” flap follows upon the watery theme the lodge is using this year and already depicted on this year’s activity patches.     Observant readers familiar with this lodge’s issues will notice several allusions to design elements found on this lodge’s earliest flaps.

Eswau Huppeday 560 J15?

This is another new issue from the treasure trove of images sent me by Jimmy Arthurs.   Eswau Huppeday recently issued their   newest cook team patch.       Except several significant color changes, this patch is identical in design to the previous Cook Team patch, listed on this site as “J14?”.

I’m waffling on how to label the border color for this patch.   In my opinion it should be a goal of any descriptive system to describe items so that they can be readily identified.   (Don’t wind me up here… please)     A principle of parsimony should apply.   This could mean that the labels, such as of colors, may not be the most technically accurate if such accuracy only complicates identification of patches.     My eyes see something like “copper” as an accurate, but confusing description, possibly more reflective of how I see things than actual color. Keeping that in mind, the easy answer for the border color on this issue is “red brown”, RBR.

Eswau Huppeday 560 Allowelendam Chapter R3?

Jimmy Arthurs also recently sent word of two patches from Eswau Huppeday’s Allowelendam chapter that were not yet on this site.   Once again, thanks to him for his help.

The first of these, issued in 2008,   is similar in design to the patch previously listed as “R1?” except for some changes in color.     The most easily described change is the change in border color from brown to turquoise.     The second patch was issued for the chapter’s 2009 Allowelendam Corp (sic).

The listing data for these issues are as follows:

Eswau Huppeday 560 eX2010-3?

Eswau Huppeday lodge recently issued their 2010 Spring Fellowship and Elangomat patches.   They continue their custom of yearly themes for their events and special issue pieces with a rather “wet” theme this year.   Thanks to Jimmy Arthurs for these images.

Since it is neither tied to nor names a particular event the Elangomat patch is listed within the body of lodge issues.     The Spring Fellowship patch takes its place within the lodge events issues.     Listing data for these are as follows:

Eswau Huppeday 560 X30?

Eswau Huppeday lodge has been issuing a CSP for the last several years for Camp Bud Schiele.     In 2009 the lodge followed 2008′s precedent and issued a second CSP for camp staff.     Thanks again to Jimmy Arthurs for word and images of these issues.

The design is also similar to past years’ CSPs.     It features the US and NC flags with a graphical representation of that year’s theme between them     For 2009 the theme was “Keeping the Campfires Burning”.

Listing data for these issues are given below. I do not yet have complete information on the “regular” CSP.     Once I do, I will update this entry.

Eswau Huppeday 560 eX2008-8?

The Winter Banquet is the final event of the program year for Eswau Huppeday lodge and is actually held in January of the following year.   So this patch, for the 2008 Winter Banquet was actually issued in January 2009.       Because of the event named, I list this with the 2008 events issues.     Thanks to Jimmy Arthurs for this image.

This patch completes the set of patches – four lodge events and the Elangomat-Nimat patch – that is shown as the lodge’s eJ2008-7?.

Eswau Huppeday 560 S53?

I previously wrote about the trader flap (F13?) Eswau Huppeday issued for this Summer’s NOAC.     Now David Cody has shared with me three more patches the lodge has issued for this event.     These include two different delegate flaps, and a large triangular patch issued on a neckerchief.

The first delegate flap (F14?) is similar to the previously issued flap except for the RED felt, instead of light blue, used for the background.

The second delegate flap (S53?, pictured) was for those who completed the required advance paperwork and attended the lodge’s NOAC contingent meeting.       The design uses the “Spy vs. Spy” theme that was previously used for their Dixie Fellowship flap.     I had been customary in recent years for the lodge to use similar themes for both its Dixie and NOAC flaps.     The fleur d’lis is hidden on the left side of the brown ground.

Eswau Huppeday 560 S49?

Eswau Huppeday hosted the 2009 Dixie Fellowship at Cap Bud Schiele.     Several new flaps from that lodge appeared there.     This included a service lodge flap for the Dixie Fellowship, a set of three flaps for the lodge’s 45th anniversary, and their first 2009 NOAC flap.

The first of these was the service lodge flap, “S49?”.   The design is a modernized version of the lodge’s first flap design.     A brother could get one flap, or earn the right to purchase a flap, based upon his participation of various events in preparation for the conclave.     The lodge published a list of these events on their website.
