Podcast 304 – Founder’s Day

February 22, 2016 By Clarke Green

What do you know about Scouting’s founder?

February 22nd is founder’s day, the birthday of Scouting’s founder, born in 1857, 159 years ago, in Paddington, London, England

World Thinking Day is celebrated annually on 22 February by all Girl Guides and Girl Scouts around the world. It is a day when they think about their fellow Scouts in all the countries of the world.

Listen to a narrative about a visit to the National scouting museum from Craig Dickson, Scoutmaster of troop 682 in Poway CA. Send me your story!

I also take the opportunity to add some thoughts to my email answer about patrols in last week’s podcast.
