Logewhego Federation
Special Projects Description
 
The Logewhego Nation Special Projects represent a distinct class of awards that are earned based on specific personal and group achievements, not participation in tribal and nation events.  Many of the projects place an emphasis on the Native American theme of the program.  Listed below are the ten special projects for which feather patches can be earned.  The primary patch (analogous to the large round nation patch but in the shape of a bird with outstretched wings) will be issued at the time the first special project feather is earned.  There is also a special larger feather patch that is awarded upon completion of the ten special projects.
 
The tribal chiefs have the primary responsibility for ensuring that the criteria are met before a feather patch is awarded, although some special projects will be held in conjunction with nation events like the campouts. The Legend Keeper of each nation council is designated as the special projects coordinator for their nation this is the main contact person in the event of questions or suggestions.
