Hmmm, I don't think so. Conclave appears to be a term associated with
annual gatherings of Order of The Arrow Lodges. From a Google search:

"Conclaves
Each year the local Order of the Arrow Section holds an annual conclave
at different locations throughout the section area.  At these conclaves,
arrowmen can learn a variety of new skills in various training sessions
that are offered on Indian Lore, Service and camp promotions. You can
meet arrowmen from other lodges, trade patches and participate in Indian
dances. There are activities and competitions between lodges, sometimes
in games that you won't find anywhere else such as Indian Handball.  
During the conclaves, the new section officers are also elected by the
arrowmen for the coming year.  
At the end of the weekend two awards are given based on the competition.
The coveted Conclave Award is the overall top award for the weekend and
the Most Indian Lodge award for spirit.  Achewon Nimat has taken home
the Conclave Award 11 times and has won the Most Indian Lodge 7 times. 
The first Conclave of Section 12B was held in 1949 at Camp Lilienthal in
Marin county outside of the town of Fairfax and was hosted by Royaneh
Lodge 282 of the San Francisco Council.  The next year Machek NGult
hosted the second Conclave at the Oakland Tourist Club located about a
mile south of the former site of Camp Dimond in the Oakland hills."
For the inquiring minds on the list.
