Hello my fellow Mikanakawans. The 2012 SR2-3N Section Conclave was held April 20-22 at Tarleton State University. All of the lodges in our section gathered to learn and compete, and most of all had fun and fellowship! This year Miki set a record by taking 185 arrowmen to Conclave! That is 79 more than last year. Miki had a strong showing in just about every aspect of this year’s Conclave. Also for the second year in a row Mikanakawa brought home BEST OF SECTION!!
We started our day with a wonderful breakfast provided by the campus cafeteria then headed out to classes. There were a variety of classes to attend everything from how to make moccasins to brotherhood retention. A big thanks goes out the many Mikanakawans who were instructors or ran competitions that weekend like Ricky Watson Jr., Ben Myers, Cooper Blount, Nathan Bubeck, D'Quaylon Davis, Logan Myers, Daniel Tassin, and Rick Garcia. After lunch we got geared up for ceremony, dance, and sport competitions. We ended the weekend Sunday morning with chapel, awards, and section elections where Ben Myers ran and was elected as Section Secretary. Good job Ben!
