Section E15 is made up of five lodges in Upstate New York and in the Northern Tier of Pennsylvania. To find your lodge visit oa-bsa.org/lodge-map.
At the local level, lodges exist to serve BSA councils and individual units. Each lodge chief is a member of the section’s Council of Chiefs and is able to attend and vote at monthly section meetings. Sections work closely with lodges to provide support when they need it.
