Extractions: E-mail: ggc@girlguides.ca SPARKS: age 5-6. We do not suggest any specific astronomy activities for this age group, other than becoming aware of the sky environment in the daytime and at night. BROWNIES: age 7-9 The program strands are called "windows". These are first opened, then widened. They look at people, the outdoors, and today and tomorrow. In opening and widening the girls' view on the outdoors, astronomy can be introduced: noting and recording the sun and moon in the daytime sky, and noting and recording the moon, planets, and stars in the evening and night sky. Learning to find north, south, east, and west is part of the program. The girls might note that the sun moves from the east in the morning, to the south at noon, to the west in the evening.

Extractions: Figure 1.Scout troops around the world, like these French Scouts, began adopting national styles to their Scout uniforms. The overiding event iduring the 1990s was World War I (1914-18). In the 1910s the Scouting movement became the world's preminent youth group around the world. Founded by Lord Baden Powell in 1906, by the 1910s there were Scouts operating in virtually every European country and North America. With the surge of patriotism surrounding the War effort, support and membership grew in most countries. World War I was the first major war since the founding of youth groups and the first opportunity for these groups to organize young people on the home front to support the war effort. Most countries had youth groups with uniform styled like the military. TheAmeriucan cout uniform was virtually a replica of the U.S. Army uniform. The fledgling Scout movement grew rapidly in the early 1910s spreading to several new countries. Scouting soon was eclipsing other boys' organizations such as the Boys' Brigade in Britain and the Wood Craft Indians in America. To a large extent this surprised Lord Baden Powell and other British Scout leaders. They had conceived Scouting as a national movement. To their credit they embraced the international character of the movement they had founded.The spread of Scouting beyond national borders enabled it to develop its internationalist character that is now one of its great strngths. The international character of the movement, however, was impairred by the disaster of World War I (1914-18).

More details can be found on related pages. Baden-Powell returned to England a national hero, after defending the town of Mafeking (Mafikeng as it is now spelled) for seven months from the besieging Boer troops, the first real British triumph in the Boer War. When he returned to England, he discovered that many boys and young men were avidly reading his book Aids to Scouting . This book was intended as a military training manual, teaching soldiers techniques such as observation, tracking, initiative... B-P. met with various influential people in youth movements across the country, and was persuaded to write a version of Aids to Scouting aimed at teenage boys

Extractions: Baden-Powell On-Line (An article for the February 1997 Deep Cove Crier) Just a few weeks ago at the local Parkgate Shopping Centre, all of our community was reminded once again that Scouting is alive and well in our local community. Dozens of cars were lined up by the CIBC Bank, depositing not money, but rather Christmas trees in the annual 11th Seymour Tree Chip-Up. I offer my congratulations to the Scouts, Cubs, Beavers, Venturers, Scouters, and parents for a job well done in helping to protect our environment. From its very inception, Scouting has always been looking for creative ways to do good deeds, and serve its local community. I remember as a young boy that I carried a Scouting good-deed coin in my right pocket. The aim was to do a good deed each day so that I could move my Scouting coin over to my left pocket. Lord and Lady Robert and Olave Baden Powell were a remarkably gifted couple to have started such long-lasting and widespread groups as the Scouting and Guiding groups. Guiding in our area involves over 500 girls, including Pathfinders, Guides, Brownies, and Sparks. Just before Christmas, I was invited to speak to a local Brownie group on the meaning of Christmas. To prepare for that session, I used the Internet Search Engines to look for WEB pages on Guiding and Scouting. To my surprise, I discovered that there are over 700 Scouting/Guiding WEB pages around the world, reaching out to the 17 million+ Scouts and 8 million+ Guides. Lord and Lady Baden Powell were trailblazers in everything they did. Similarly, Guides and Scouts are trailblazers in this new technological revolution, that is radically reshaping our modern world.

There are more than 300 troops (local units) with more than 85000 scouts nationwide. The badge of the PP is dark red with a white combination of a lilly and a shamrock, the symbols of WAGGGS and WOSM. Their bades are also used. edit Scouting was first brought to Austria early in the 20th century . In , the first scout-like group was founded in Wiener Neustadt . In Emmerich Teuber began the first Scouting group in Vienna . The Catholic Church simultaneously founded the Pfadfinderkorps St.Georg . The first camps were held in As the movement spread, girls joined and troops were founded all over the country. The national organization, the sterreichischer Pfadfinderbund , was founded in April . Scouting programs expanded, including cub scouts in
Extractions: Section Two The ideas of the movement also caught on among girls, and they very much wanted to be part of it. However, as children's activities were usually gender exclusive at the time, the idea of girls joining Boy Scouts just wasn't acceptable. Girls had to form their own group, which became known as Girl Guides. Here's an account of how one Girl Guide troop started: "In the early spring of 1910 a company of Scouts was formed at St. James Church in Vancouver. Phyl Munday could not see why boys alone should be able to enjoy such a movement, so she asked the Scoutmaster if they could have a troop of Girl Scouts. Evidently this was not acceptable, so Phyl bullied her mother into becoming their Scout Mistress." Not Just Pin Money, p. 221. Tofino Girl Guides, A-05766 Like Boy Scouts, Girl Guides quickly became popular even in small towns. Although Guides shared similar aims as Scouts, many Guide activities often focused on feminine occupations. While Scouts might earn badges for boating, camping, fitness, and first aid, Guides could work towards badges in cooking, needlework, laundry and child care.

BIS represents the Scout/Guide movement to the authorities and issues programs, rules, uniforms and badges. It runs all international affairs, co-ordinates leader training and takes care of public relations for the movement in Iceland. There are three permanent committees: Program Comm., Leader Training Comm., and International Comm.l The beginnings of Scouting and Guiding in Iceland Scouting was introduced in Iceland as early as 1911, when Ingvar Ólafsson, who had entered the Scout Movement in Denmark, formed the first Boy Scout patrol. The first troop, Skátafélag Reykjavíkur, was established on November 2nd 1912, and many of the members of the first scout troop became founding members of this new troop.

Extractions: The fact that there are problems within Scouting can be evidenced from two factors. One; a loss in numbers, and two; the growing number of independent organisations, often of a traditionalist nature in reaction to changes designed to modernise scouting in an attempt to hold numbers. It must be noted that the crisis of the scout movement in the west is not reflected universally. Other societies have not experienced social transformation at the same rate, or in the same direction. This means that the traditional image of the scout in these countries will continue to share a backdrop with its society at large. In other countries, the scout movement will be one of a relatively few agencies in the provision of youth work, as was true for Britain in the Edwardian period, and therefore not present a picture of decline. The schisms in the Scout movement in the UK in the 1970s/1980s, and post 1980s overseas, although minor compared with the great scout schism of 1909-1911 (which created the first world Scout organisation led by Sir Francis Vane in opposition to Baden-Powell), emerged out of a need to come to terms with an essential problem that can be rehearsed as follows; "How does an organisation born in an age of imperialism and nationalism, with a society which was more monolithic, survive in a post-imperial age with a pluralistic society in the west and where each Country is but one community in a global village?"

Extractions: About MORI News About MORI MORI Senior Staff Other MORI Offices ... Recruitment 4 October 2003 Two years after re-launching its identity and programme, The Scout Association commissioned MORI Social Research Institute to determine some key aspects of how the long-established movement is viewed today. Awareness of the organisation is high. More than four in five (86%) British people say they have heard of the Scout Association, higher than all other youth groups measured. The Scouts also scored highly on trust with two thirds (67%) saying they trusted the organisation. The public sees the organisation as 'adventurous' (77%), 'exciting' (61%) and 'environmentally focused' (67%). The qualitative research that MORI undertook shows that what appeals to parents about Scouting are its values, the skills it teaches and the opportunities it offers young people. Technical details MORI conducted four focus groups among parents of children aged 6 -14. They were held across England between the 30 April and 1 May. MORI then interviewed a nationally representative sample of 1,953 (in the first wave of research) and 1,958 (in the second wave of research) adults aged 15 and over in 198 different sampling points. Interviews were conducted face-to-face, in-home, between 5-10 and 19-24 June 2003. 1,953 respondents aged 15+ across Great Britain
