To celebrate the Centenary of Scouting and Scouts involvement in National Youth Week, all scouts are asked to wear their Scout Group Scarf over their school uniform on Friday, 27 April, 2007.
An icon of the Scout uniform, the scarf is worn rolled with a triangular piece at the back of the neck and is held by a clasp named a ‘woggle’ at the front. Originally the Scarf served practical purposes, such as covering the nose and mouth against dust, as an emergency handkerchief, a triangular bandage, an arm sling and as ties for a stretcher. Now, it is mainly used for differentiation as every Scout Group has its own distinct scarf colour and pattern.
Avoca cubs and scouts, what a great opportunity to promote 1st Avoca Beach Scouts !
Even better, what a great fashion accessory for your school uniform, start a trend !
Let's see those Avoca scarves out there !
