Bermuda
The Bermuda Scout Association operates as a branch of the UK's Scout Associationdue to Bermuda's status as a British Overseas Territory. The Bermudian Scout Oath and Law, as well as other Scouting requirements, closely follow that of the United Kingdom.
Although the program activities are taken from the British system, Bermuda Scouting is geared to the local way of life. Training for Wood Badge and leader training are conducted with the help of British and nearby affiliated Scout associations. Bermuda Scouts participate in numerous camps and events, and Bermuda fields a contingent to World Scout Jamborees..
Bermuda Scouts in recent years have attended Scout summer camps in the United Kingdom as well as in the USA. Visiting troops from the Boy Scouts of America have also been hosted at the Scout Association's Admiral House facility and grounds in 2002 and 2003.
A popular Association-wide annual event is a weekend camporee on Darrell's Island. Another event is the "Budding Chef" activity, when Scouts compete in cooking skills.
A major island-wide event each year is the observance of St George's Day in April, honoring the patron saint of the Scouting movement. As in the United Kingdom, troops participate in a parade on Front St. in Hamilton on the nearest Sunday to April 23rd and attend a Scout service at the Cathedral of the Most Holy Trinity, where a message from the Chief Scout is read and the Scout Hymn is sung. A "renewal of promise" then takes place where the Scouts renew the Scout's Promise made at joining and at all Scout meetings. The service concludes with the singing of God Save the Queen.
