Name That Council: June 19, 2009 solution

7-Altered

OK, last week’s
Name That Council was tough. But you
might have gotten it—if you looked closely at the most-prominent element of the
patch (shown above). Follow the jump for the correct answer.


7-Yankee-Clipper

That’s it. The
Yankee Clipper Council, based in Haverhill, Mass., about 40 miles
north of Boston.
Pearl Parker, a pack trainer from Gaithersburg, Md., was the first to get it correctly.

A clipper ship
on a nondescript stretch of water? Maybe you were out to sea on this one,
unless the name of the fast, 19
th-century sailing ships came to
mind.

So don’t feel
too bad if you didn’t get it. Just come back Friday for another challenge—an
easier one. Maybe.
