Shenandoah Lodge 1979 Annual Inductions patch

Established in 1944, Shenandoah Lodge was the third Order of the Arrow Lodge formed in Virginia (behind Nawakwa 3 and Koo Koo Ku Hoo 161). The first organizational meeting was held at the YMCA in Staunton VA on May 17, 1944, with 10 Scouts and 5 Scouters inducted as charter members.

This patch was issued in 1979 for their annual inductions event and recognizes the 35th Anniversary of the first Lodge inductions.
