Leopold Flowers, former Executive Commissioner of The Scout Association of Belize, and William Faux, presently Deputy Chief Commissioner, Scouting in Belize was started in 1910 when Henry Longsworth of St. John's Cathedral established a troop there.
This took place at Robin's home, then situated at the corner of Wilson Street and Barrack Road.
Governor Bennett then selected George Grabbam, then manager of the Belize Estate and Produce Company Ltd. Mr. Grabham in turn appointed as Scoutmasters to assist him Phillip Ely, a Mr. Wexham and Paul Shephard Berry, then the superintendent of the Belize Wireless Station.
Hundreds of boys, including many leading citizens, passed through the hands of 'Bra Jake', as he was affectionately known.
The level of this activity has varied considerably over the years, depending largely on the extent of the association's ability to attract and maintain committed voluntary leadership.
