ISCA UPDATE - OAIMAGES.NET / OAINSIGNIA.COM PROJECT
FYI, we are still working on the OAInsignia.com / OAImages.net project with a goal of having the best on-line catalog of OA issues for the hobby. While progress has been slow, we are making progress pursuing several different avenues and have a number of things in the works.
The OAInsignia.com OA Catalog website which is similar to OAImages.net is still presently serving as the Master with updates being recorded by volunteer Editors. We have recently added thumbnails to the OAInsignia.com catalog listings and while not perfect or even close to being complete, some pricing information has been added in a new column for some of the lodges.
If you have not already done so, please consider registering simply by selecting the Sign In link located on the top right corner of the OAInsignia.com homepage. You will be asked to provide your name, a log-in ID, your eMail address and a password so you can then log-in. By registering, it allows you to add images and add new potential issues.
If you wish to become an Editor for a lodge that does not already have one as indicated on the website, and are knowledgeable about that lodge, please send an eMail to craig.leighty@gmail.com stating your first and last name, and the lodge you feel you are knowledgeable enough to make updates and changes for.

Frequently Asked Questions
ISCA Roots Trace Back Almost a Half Century
The International Scouting Collectors Association was formed in 2001, when the American Scouting Traders Association (ASTA)
and the National Scouting Collectors Society (NSCS) merged to better serve the collecting community. The previous organization
were RECOGNIZED WORLDWIDE as leading Scouting memorabilia organizations, devoted to the preservation of the hobby. ISCA will
surely follow in their footsteps. ISCA is a not-for-profit corporation with members from all fifty states and from many other
Scouting countries. ISCA is operated by volunteer Scouters well experienced in collecting and trading Scouting memorabilia.
Our primary purpose is to educate the membership and others regarding Scouting
memorabilia and promotion of the ISCA Ethics.
"The ISCA Journal"
The "ISCA Journal", ISCA's quarterly publication featuring ISCA functions, Trade-O-Ree information, history of Scouting memorabilia, news of new patches issued, reports on TOR's, Letters to the Editor and lots more.
Trading By Mail
Expanding Your Trading Opportunities: Members can access a complete roster of current members giving their name, address, telephone number, e-mail address and their collecting and trading interests. There is also a 1 for 1 trading section in each ISCA Journal.
Trade-O-Rees
ISCA co-sponsors Trade-O-Rees around the country. These Trade-O-Rees provide an opportunity for the membership to gather for fellowship, education, displaying of collections and trading face to face. Meeting your mail trading friend can be an exciting experience. TOR's are listed in the ISCA Journal and on this website.
National Event Participation
ISCA takes a leading part in holding seminars, furnishing displays and providing information to new collectors and traders. These are done at Section Conclaves, National Order of the Arrow Conferences (NOAC) and other opportunities.
You Are Represented
ISCA has four Regional Vice Presidents in the USA. They coordinate activities through the Area Vice Presidents in the many
states within their regions. Regional Vice Presidents are members of the ISCA Executive Board. Area Vice Presidents who are
appointed by the Regional Chairs see that ISCA Trade-O-Rees are held in their area, seek new memberships, and keep us informed
of hobby news and happenings in their area with reports published in the ISCA Journal or by furnishing information to our Column
Editors. In addition, you are also represented by ELECTED national officers and an ELECTED Board of Directors.
