It’s been a long time, but we’ve finished our server migration and we’re back in action. This episode, we bring you to the Section NE-2C Conclave and talk with the 2007 National Chief of the Order of the Arrow, Evan Chaffee. We also take a moment with Dave Ames who shares his collection of Boy Scout handbooks and New York area OA patches. We also listen in on Northeast Region Chief, Ken Hager trading patches with his fellow scouts at the conclave.

Be sure to visit the National OA website for the most recent version of the National Bulletin the frontpage of which features “iSash” and other ‘Arrow Ads’ which we created with our friends at Coosa Shows. If you’d like to purchase a DVD featuring iSash (as well as the other ads) you can easily do so at The Scout History Project Store. Also, we’ve decided to dial back the frequency of our shows to one a month instead of two. But don’t worry, we’ll keep ‘em comin’ just like always.

‘Hope you’ve enjoyed the show, come back again next time for ClothTalk: bringing you this history of Scouting through collectibles.

It’s been a long time since we’ve posted an episode of ClothTalk, but we’re hoping to be back to a regular release schedule very soon.

Since you last heard our voices, we’ve moved the entire site to a new server, upgraded all of the software, optimized the databases, cleaned out some dead files, and completely reorganized the back end of the site. What does that mean for you, the listener? It means that our job, after all this effort, has gotten a little bit easier.

Also, as the eagle-eyed among you may have noticed, we’ve moved the ClothTalk site from scouthistory.net/blog to scouthistory.net/clothtalk, which isn’t as easy as it sounds. WordPress is a bear to move. The good news is that, through some technical magic, all of your old ClothTalk bookmarks will still work!

Ben and Tim working on a new episode of ClothTalk and I’m still testing everything I can on the new server. If you have an idea for the show or find a problem with the site, please leave us a comment or drop us an email (clothtalk@clothtalk.com) and let us know!

Soon we will be upgradading our hosting and migrating our website to a new server, which we hope will go very smoothly. Also, we’ve begun planning on the biggest, most exciting thing we’ve even taken on at The Scout History Project…but we’ll have more on that later. So fear not, we may be gone, but we’ve not forgotten. Keep an eye on this page, or sign up for the email notification because we will be back to our regular bi-weekly schedule very soon.

Thanks,
_ben
