The purpose of the 75th Anniversary celebration, is to promote Scouting as a worthwhile modern program which is meeting the needs of youth. Scouting is proud of its past and is eagerly looking forward to the future. Careful planning must be done to ensure the celebration activities: (a) are part of the regular ongoing ac- tivities - not an '"'extra" tacked on. (b) are planned so the general public has an easy access. ; (c) are spaced throughout the period February 1982 - Jyly 1983, so the Anniversary has impact during the eighteen month period. There will be several highlights during the celebrations: Feb. 21-28, 1982 - Scout / Guide Week - launch of celebrations - 125 years since the birth of Baden - Powell. Aug. 1-9, 1982 - 75th Anniversary of the first official Scout Camp at Brownsea Island - Camps with the theme "take a friend to Brownsea."' Feb. 20-27, 1983 - Scout / Guide Week - 75 years of Scouting in Canada - Group reunions. July 4-14, 1983 - 15th World Jamboree in Alberta - Join-in Jamborees - Wind up of the 75th Anniversary. This schedule provides a major event every six months during the celebrations. Each group or section can plan their own activities to make best use of the op- portunities provided. Historical, museum type displays which show Scountings' past will be of interest to former members who wish to reminisce. Today's youth and their parents will be at- tracted by modern, active programs showing that Scouting is "with it."
