Section E3 Conclave Recap

The 2024 E3 Section Conclave was an absolute blast! The lodge contingent was able to participate in morning training, patch trading, afternoon activities, and the annual Quest games, where our Wa-Hi-Nasa Lodge youth participated in fun games such as 9 square, a puzzle relay race, and tug-of-war. We are so happy we were able to see one of our very own Hannah Neal be elected as our new E3 Section Vice-Chief! We can’t wait to see everyone and how Conclave plays out next year!
