The council is served by Yosemite Lodge 278 with 3 chapters that correspond to the three districts above. On October 10, 1998, at 10:10 AM, [[Yo-Se-Mite Lodge 278]] and [[Sumi Lodge 342]] became one at Camp McConnell in Livingston, California. This momentous occasion was celebrated by the current Chiefs from the two Lodges; each carried a flaming torch from their own Lodge's fire and together used them to kindle the flame that will burn in the Council fire of the new Toloma Lodge for many years to come. Traditions of both Lodges are melding to form the traditions of the new Toloma Lodge 64. The Lodge's name, "Toloma," comes from the Mi-Wuk meaning Lynx. The totem of the Lodge is appropriately Lynx. The Newsletter is the Missing Lynx. | The council is served by Yosemite Lodge 278 with 3 chapters that correspond to the three districts above.
