Each year on August 1, scouts across the world celebrate World Scout Scarf Day. This day is for all active and former scout members to showcase their scout pride by wearing their yellow scarfs in public. In 1904, Lieutenant-General Robert Baden-Powell was at ill-ease about the state of youth in Britain. As an honored veteran, Baden-Powell witnessed how young, youthful boys were “drifting into hooliganism for want of guiding hands to set them on the right road.” Eventually, these troubling behaviors led him to start the thought process of making Britain’s youth more responsible and productive. By 1907, Lieutenant-General Robert Baden-Powell implemented his ideas. After finding 22 young boys from different backgrounds, the group set out on a nine-day adventure. Through example and instruction, Baden-Powell taught chivalry and patriotism to the boys. Off the coast of Poole Harbor, England, on Brownsea Island, Baden-Powell began to teach boys basics life skill through activities. By the time the excursion was over, each boy was proficient in first aid, camping, survival skills, and loyalty. Lieutenant-General Robert Baden-Powell was aware his program would be successful. His assumption that everyone would be “interested in the development of manliness and good citizenship among the rising generation” was obviously successful. As a result, the program became what we now know as the Boy Scouts.
