  • The History of the Scout Wood Badge
    The set of six wood beads belonging to Robert Baden-Powell The history of the Scout Wood Badge The Scouts (UK) Heritage Service December 2018 Since September 1919 adult volunteers in the Scouts have been awarded the Wood Badge on the completion of their leader training. The basic badge is made up of two wooden beads worn at the end of a leather lace. This iconic symbol of Scouting has become shrouded in myths and its origins and development confused. Having completed extensive research using the Scouts (UK) heritage collection we have pieced together the story. The components of the Wood Badge: The Wood Badge’s design took inspiration from a necklace brought back from Africa by Scouting’s Founder, Robert Baden-Powell. In 1888 Baden-Powell was serving with the British Army in Africa. During this period Baden-Powell visited an abandoned camp where Chief Dinizulu, a local chief had been based. In 1925 Baden-Powell recalled what he found, ’In the hut, which had been put up for Dinizulu to live in, I found among other things his necklace of wooden beads. I had in my possession a photograph of him taken a few months beforehand in which he was shown wearing this necklace round his neck and one shoulder.’1 Assuming the necklace was the same one as in the photo Baden-Powell took the necklace as a souvenir of the campaign and always referred to it as Dinizulu’s necklace. Baden- 1 How I obtained the necklace of Dinizulu, told by the Chief Scout, 1925 – the Baden-Powell papers Powell admired Dinizulu describing him as “full of resources, energy and pluck,” characteristics which he would later call upon Scouts to develop.

  • The Iconic Gilwell Park
    The Iconic Gilwell Park Totem Poles at Gilwell Our Heritage listed totems represent some of the most outstanding features to be found at Gilwell Park. Totems tell a story about an important event or per- son, a favourite fable, lesson learned, belief or origin of a tribe, clan or particular family. The North Ameri- can Indians are known to have carved totems in the 1700’s. There are 5 totems in the grounds of Gilwell. The earliest was carved by Edgar Derrick and Sam Wilkinson and it is recorded that when B.P visited Gilwell in 1931, whilst it was being carved, he signed the totem. The signature was subsequently chiselled into the timber and it remains today. The second totem was carved by 1st Footscray in 1949 and originally was part of their campsite Gate- way on Forest Path. In 1994 the pole was restored and placed in position alongside The Lodge. There are 3 other totems, and they mark the entrance to the Office and No.1 car park. The 1st totem was carved by the Footscray Old Boys in 2005 as was the 2nd later in 2007. The 3rd was carved by Max Martin, a former G.L of 1st Nunawading, on behalf of the Baden Powell Masonic Lodge. The Totem was erected in August 2009. Each of the totems, as convention dictates, tells the story of a groups experience at Gilwell Park. There are 10 brack- ets in total located at the entrance representing the original 10 Scout Laws There are 7 brackets available for your group’s history.
