Conclave 2009


The fourty eight Achewon Nimat Arrowmen who gathered at Camp Royaneh, not only hosted a great conclave, but were victorious and won the first ever Section W3S Conlcave Award.

Great credit goes to the Service Corp, Dinning Hall Stewards, Cook Team, Parking Control, Registration and our site coordinators who made this a success. I would like to personally thank all the Achie Arrowmen who spent countless hours putting up with the all the fun and hassles of being the host lodge. Cheerful service was evident in all our actions.
