Stone on Brownsea Island commemorating the first Scout camp Scouting virtually started itself, but the trigger that set it going was the publication of Scouting for Boys written by Robert Baden-Powell.
Both men recognised that wars in Africa were changing markedly and the British Army needed to adapt; so during their joint scouting missions, Baden-Powell and Burnham discussed the concept of a broad training programme in woodcraft for young men, rich in explorationtrackingfieldcraftand self-reliance.
The Cadet Corps performed well, helping in the defense of the town —and were one of the many factors that inspired Baden-Powell to form the Scouting movement. The badge's logo was similar to the fleur-de-lis shaped arrowhead that Scouting later adopted as its international symbol.
In the United Kingdom, the public, through newspapers, followed Baden-Powell's struggle to hold Mafeking, and when the siege was broken, he had become a national hero. This rise to fame fuelled the sales of the small instruction book he had written in about military scouting and wilderness survival, Aids to Scouting,  that owed much to what he had learned from discussions with Burnham.
Baden-Powell thought this would not be attractive and suggested that the Boys' Brigade could grow much larger were Scouting to be used.
In the same year, to test his ideas, he gathered 21 boys of mixed social backgrounds from boy's schools in the London area and a section of boys from the PooleParkstoneHamworthyBournemouthand Winton Boys' Brigade units and held a week-long camp in August on Brownsea Island in Poole HarbourDorsetEngland.
He had not simply rewritten his Aids to Scouting; he omitted the military aspects and transferred the techniques mainly survival to non-military heroes: In a very short time, Scout Patrols were created up and down the country, all following the principles of Baden-Powell's book.
The book is now the fourth-bestselling title of all time,  and was the basis for the later American version of the Boy Scout Handbook. He encouraged them, and the Scouting movement developed momentum.
As the movement grew, Sea ScoutsAir Scoutsand other specialized units were added to the program.
In Chile was the first country outside the British dominions to have a Scouting organization recognized by Baden-Powell.
The first Scout rally, held in at The Crystal Palace in Londonattracted 10, boys and a number of girls. The first Cub Scout and Rover Scout programs were in place by the late s. They operated independently until they obtained official recognition from their home country's Scouting organization.
In the United States, attempts at Cub programs began as early asbut official recognition was not obtained until Agnes Baden-Powell became the first president of the Girl Guides when it was formed inat the request of the girls who attended the Crystal Palace Rally.
Inshe started Rosebuds—later renamed Brownies —for younger girls.
At that time, girls were expected to remain separate from boys because of societal standards, though co-educational youth groups did exist. Early Scoutmaster training camps were held in London and Yorkshire in and Baden-Powell wanted the training to be as practical as possible to encourage other adults to take leadership roles, so the Wood Badge course was developed to recognize adult leadership training.
The development of the training was delayed by World War Iso the first Wood Badge course was not held until Gilwell Park near London was purchased in on behalf of The Scout Association as an adult training site and Scouting campsite.
One of these was Rovering to Success, written for Rover Scouts in A wide range of leader training exists infrom basic to program-specific, including the Wood Badge training.BOARD OF EDUCATION MEETING September 10, Mission Statement: Educating and Empowering for Life Meeting will be held at P.M.
