Description

Scouting has many traditions. One of my favourite is Campfire Ashes taken from a previous campfire ceremony are sprinkled into the flames of the next campfire. 

Legend has it, the founder of Scouting, Lord Robert Baden-Powell wanted Scouts and Scouters to have a tangible reminder that they are part of a brotherhood of Scouts and Scouters enjoying the warmth of campfires from around the world.

As the Scouting movement grew, Baden-Powell was invited to campfires wherever he went. He carried a small sample of the ashes from his last campfire to the new one. He would add those ashes to the next fire and tell of the linage and the Scouts and Scouters who had shared the earlier fires with him.

These tins have been specially laser engraved by a fellow Scouter, exclusively for sale on Baloo’s Badge Bin. A perfect pocket size container for storing and transporting your ashes from one campfire to the next.
