At 08:00 on the 1st August 1907, Robert Baden-Powell blew his Kudu horn to assemble the 20 boys camping on Brownsea Island around the flagpole. This was the start of the Scouting movement.
100 years to the day, millions of Scouters around the world are honouring this historical event by renewing their Scout Promise on what has been dubbed "Scouting's Sunrise".
As the name suggests, today is the dawn of a new century of Scouting.
Here's to another 100 years!
We will be holding a small sunrise ceremony tonight at around 20:00 at Ardsley Scout Headquarters.
