Description: History of the Reunion at Ebor Park, Blue Springs Scout Reserve.
In 1888 while Baden-Powell was fighting in Africa he obtained Dinizulu's string of many wooden beads.  These signified Dinizulu's leadership in his Zululand tribe.  In September of 1919 when B-P gave his course in Scoutmaster training at Gilwell Park, England, he took beads from that string to present to the participants, signifying their leadership in Scouting.  The tradition continues.  This course is what we now call Wood Badge, and is given internationally. Graduates receive their beads and scarf and are henceforth known as Gilwellians
