first boy scouts
Ten Dorset boys from bourne and Poole
took a trip to brownsea with the first scouts crew
three half a crowns they paid each one
to spend a time there and have some fun
Lord Baden Powell he took those local boys
to teach them scouting with all its joys
the skills of craft and camping too
were held at brownsea isle just next to Poole
that first camps is now history
with generations of scouts at jamborees
the campfires lit and the songs were sung
those far off days when we were young
its worldwide fame and girl guides too
were born at brown sea next to Poole
with chants of boys and ventures blessed
they planted the seed you know the rest
