Inaugural 2009 SR-9 Conclave is Fast Approaching
Coosa Lodge is Proud to host the inaugural 2009 SR-9 Conclave at Hugh M. Comer Scout Reservation.
Located atop of Lookout Mountain four miles south of historic Mentone, Alabama; Comer is named after Alabama industrialist and Silver Buffalo recipient Hugh M. Comer. The camp has been in operation since 1965, and 2009 will mark the 44th anniversary of serving as a traditional Boy Scout Camp. The reservation has two camps located on the property Camp Mike, named after Gadsden industrialist A.C. Michaels, and Camp A.C. Jacobs.
Upon your arrival at conclave, lodges will be greeted by members of the host corps and directed to the designated registration area. Check-In will occur at the new Staff Lounge located at the end of the parking lot; this will also serve as the Host Lodge headquarters for the weekend.
After lodges have registered a member of our Host Corps will escort your lodge to one of our 13 campsites that our equipped with both wall tents and Adirondacks, which are 4 person cabins. The Greater Alabama Council is in the process of replacing all of our canvass wall tents with larger 9x9 tents.
During Conclave the Moran Colburn Trading Post will be open for Lodges to pick-up pre-order items. The trading post staff will also be selling camping items, snacks, and Comer memorabilia. Or if you just want to get away from things for a while you can sit and rock on the front porch while enjoying some Mayfield Ice Cream!
Comer Scout Reservation has two main shower facilities on property. Each one is conveniently located near campsites and offer separated shower facilities for youth, adult males, and adult females. They are also centrally heated and cooled!
Food is a number one priority of Coosa Lodge for the 2009 SR-9 Conclave! Coosa Lodge will insure that no one goes hungry during the weekend. All meals will be served in the newly renovated C.M Jespersen Dining Hall. Our plans are to have the kitchen running round the clock for those late night snackers.
The Shows committee is working hard to provide a great shows experience for you at conclave. All shows will be held in Flatt Rock Arena located on the Lake Republic.
The 2009 Conclave will mark the 10th Conclave held at Camp Comer and the host lodge is working hard to make this one of the best conclaves Arrowman have participated in! As you enjoy your weekend at camp you will realize there is something special about Camp Comer!
