In Northern Wisconsin olde Region 7 of the BSA operated a Canoe Base. The base was noted for for its distinctive logo which pictured a Pine / Spruce tree superimposed over a Canoe with crossed Paddles. These patches have become very collectible with the closure of the base and more emphasis placed on the nearlby Norther Tier High Adventure Bases in the Boundary Waters. Yet these patches have held their own because of the good looks and color scheme. The Staff Hat Diamond pictured above is one of the harder to get patches. Made by Midwest Embroidery out of Chicago most of these were sewn to caps, to find a loose one is a treat. Great looking Base Patch!
