"S14" 1985 Conclave Host

Talidandaganu' hosted the section VI conclave at Skymont Scout Camp in 1985. This flap was issued to those members who worked at the March & April work weekends. The right to purchase one of these flaps were earned, one for each day that was worked, so a total of four could be earned.

S14

S15

"S15" Bright Sun

Another flap was ordered in 1985 just before the spring Ordeal, which came back different. The rays of the sun are much brighter, the letters are larger, there are only 4 tail feathers, and the stitching runs diagonally rather than horizontally as in the 13a & 13b and the border is silver mylar.

How to identify:  Silver mylar border, four tail feathers.


"F3"

Talidanadaganu' received these flaps from BSA supply in 1986. They are longer than the S13 & S15 and the blue sky is cloth and is not fully embroidered, making it the third "F" flap issued by the Lodge. There were 300 of these flaps ordered but they arrived too late to be purchased by those attending the spring Ordeal, so most were purchased by members attending the 1986 NOAC.

How to identify:  Sky is twill (not embroidered)

F3

S16a

"S16a" Bright Sun/Grey Border

The Lodge decided to go back to International Emblems {makers of the S15} when ordering the flaps for the fall Ordeal of 1986. These 1000 flaps were exactly like the S15 except the border is a flat gray instead of mylar.

How to identify:  Gray border (not silver mylar); four tail feathers.
