Scouting originated in Waterdown in 1935 with the 1st Waterdown Groups. They all folded except 3rd Waterdown, which received its charter in October of 1960. Our home base is Sealey Park Scout Hall on Mill St. The Royal Canadian Legion Br. 551, Waterdown, sponsors the 3rd Waterdown Group. We wear the Legion emblem on the back of our scarves. Our group has five sections: Beavers 5-7, Cubs 8-10, Scouts 11-14, Ventures 15-17, & Rovers 18-26. All our leaders are police checked volunteers. We have a Group Committee made up of intrested parents, leaders, and other volunteers that meets on a monthly basis from August to May to look after fundraising, program issues, leadership recruitment, registration, and any other administrative issues affecting the group.
