1966 Fall Fellowship


1966 Fall Fellowship Patch
"Weld Tightly Every Link"


Description: This was our first Fall Fellowship. As a result it is one of our very hardest to come by issues. It may have been designed by David Lyttle. This first fellowship of what would become a very popular annual event was held at the old Methodist Youth Camp on Bear Creek Lake near Marianna. At the time, the camp consisted of several forest green buildings including a dining hall and eight cabins. These were located in the National Forest area and have since been torn down. At one time in the 1930's, the scouters in that part of the council had plans to build a scout camp at that location. Mens clubs even raised funds and began negotiations with the forest service. These plans however never came to pass because terms could not be worked out.
