Baden-Powell Heritage Centre

Centre: The Baden-Powell Heritage Centre contains a display of Scouting memorabilia collected and donated by various people, both within Scouting and members of the general public, Scouting groups and other Scouting sources.

History: Vic Waddell, a Scouting Field Commissioner, instituted the idea of a collection of Scouting memorabilia and set up a display for the Jindalee Jamboree in a council bus and a tent with approximately 200 items.  The success of this display led to displays at other Scouting functions and eventually the provision of the "Wheelhouse" at Baden-Powell Park Samford to house the display permanently.

Planning: Make a visit to the Heritage Centre a part of your planning when you visit Baden-Powell Park Samford to camp or visit.
 
Outing: Looking for a day outing?  Bring a picnic lunch and visit the Heritage Centre. Experienced Guides will conduct you through the Centre and answer your questions.
