World Scout Day, also known as Founder's Day, is celebrated annually on February 22nd. It marks the birthday of Lord Robert Baden-Powell, the founder of the Scout movement. Lord Baden-Powell was born on February 22, 1857, and he is credited with establishing the Boy Scouts in 1907 and the Girl Guides (later known as Girl Scouts) in 1910.
World Scout Day is an opportunity for Scouts around the world to come together and celebrate the values and principles of Scouting. It often involves various activities, events, and ceremonies organized by Scout groups and organizations globally. These activities may include community service projects, parades, flag ceremonies, and other events that promote the spirit of Scouting.
The day serves as a reminder of the positive impact that the Scouting movement has had on the lives of millions of young people worldwide, fostering character development, leadership skills, and a sense of community service. Scout organizations may also use the occasion to reflect on the values of Scouting and its ongoing commitment to promoting peace, understanding, and cooperation among diverse communities.
