Guiding and Baden-Powell

 The statue at Poole, Dorset opposite Brownsea Island of Robert Baden-Powell
Baden-Powell at the 1935 Jamboree, lionized by the Scouts.

He is MY hero, the founder of Scouting for Boys and Guiding for Girls, teaching personal, social and practical skills, increasing the confidence and competence of millions of boys and girls around the World of all races, religion, class and language, moulding them into good productive and useful Men and Women. 

Brownies here take their salute at the weekly meeting just like others across the region and beyond.

Tammy is glad to be a brownie in spirit.
