On Thursday March 16th 1911 at 7.30pm a small group of people gathered together in the Mission hall in Ware. They had arranged to meet with Percy Everett with the view of forming the Ware and District Boy Scout Association.
Rev. Payne, Rev. Farmer, Messrs Fox Hill, Grace, H Burgess, Page, Crawley and Blake were present and were in agreement; Ware needed to become a District in its own right and so the Hertford and Ware Boy Scout Association was split into two and Ware and the surrounded villages formed their own Association which was to be presided over by RB Croft Esq. of Fanhams Hall.
The next day the District was registered and Ware and District had begun! 3rd Ware was amongst the Troops who were there on the first day and as you know are still going strong.
Happy Birthday Ware and District!
