History of the Scout Group San Jorge |
Our Group is born in 1968 in the El Salvador School, maintained thanks to the contribution of the Italian congregation of Parents Barnabites, arrival to San Vicente De Tagua Tagua at the beginning of the decade of the 50, at the request of important landowners of the zone. San Vicente, is a small city of 15 thousand habitants, located 150 kilometers to the south of Santiago, the capital of Chile. Our group, integrated only by students and ex- students of the School, so that the herd of lobatos Waibunga (8 to 11 years), the troops of scouts Colombo (12 to 16 years) and the community of rovers Lupetahue (17 to 21), have a great identification with the institution. We have At the moment near 90 members, as our school is not mixed we only have masculine branches, but is custom of our zone, maintaining numerous activities with other groups of Guides and scouts pertaining to our association. Let us leave our founder, Father Cristóforo Colombo Serafín, deceased in 1995, tells us as this adventure began... Words of the Old Wolf. It
was in April of 1968, that I was decided to form scouts in the School. It was
already thinking it a long time ago. He noticed that in the strolls, the
excursions and the Summerings in the beach some will remember Algarrobo or
Tongoy), were very poor of content, and the boys did not know like "
killing the time ", not to become bored. He had already occupied to me of
the scouts in our school of the La Serena, in year 64 ', totemizaron to me there
like " Ferocious Wolf ". I liked the experience, and she saw
entertainment very it to educate the youth that looks for existential values. I
widened my knowledge with Literature scout. Soon, I talked with Carlos Montero,
totemizado later like " Eye of Aguila ", that had been my student and
was, in that time, teach in preparatory.To him also it liked the idea, and we
began the work after publishing in the corridors of the school, a proclamation
that said thus: " Those that aspire to being scouts, reúnanse in afternoon
of Thursday 29 of April in the corner of the Llorón ".- they had to guess that that Llorón (cry) was a great willow located in
a corner of the field and finished the proclamation saying: " enters with desire the great game of the scouts". Thus
Grupo Scout was born San Jorge; and to the few weeks, those boys of the willow
llorón were distributed in 4 patrols: Crows, Squirrels, Buhos and Coyotes. We
immediately took contact with the then " Federation from scouts Catholic of
Chile", the Catholic branch of the Creole scouts.
In
1974 I subscribed the document-propose one of unification of the scouts in Chile to give origin to the present
Association of Guías and Scouts of
Chile. How not to remember the first heads of Patrol: Rolo, Galaz, Claudio,
Moraga?... How not to remember the Campings School, - that still
subsist in our group in Las Peñas, La Rufina, Popeta; and
when we began to have the rovers, how not to remember the famous excursions -
retirement to Llico, Navidad, and the routes in the Lupetto by the central coast
until Maitencillo, occasion in which cut potatoes in the luxurious
beach of Reñaca to pass pain; I will be able to say to them them
kilometers of seams that I have crossed to provide those solid carps to them in
which you they are brilliant. Of happening of the years, the Group took control
great, and the camping equipment also. In the Jamboree of Panguipulli we
appeared in the cover of the Austral Newspaper like the troops better equipped.
We participated in almost all the events. In the Jamborees of Quebrada de Macul
76 ', Peñuelas 82 ', Panguipulli 86 ', the Austral of Villarrica in 1989, Los
Lagos 92, Wanted Scouts of yesterday and great today, boys and: hopefully that remembering our magnificent adventure, more than to celebrate it we feel it like special part of our lives because we have a Promise, done in our Honor, To fulfill the Law Scout ". That " Always Ready ", that we shouted with desire, always has arranged to give a hand to us, an advice, a glance, a smile... in short, the scoutism does not become..., is lived through the service to the others. The Scouts we are promotional of the Universal Brotherhood. ¡¡¡ Remembered !!!. |
