Scouts’ Day is observed worldwide on April 23, celebrating the patron saint of Scouting, Saint George. The day is significant for many Scout organizations, often marked by events held on the Sunday closest to this date. It commemorates the founding of the Scout movement by Robert Baden-Powell, who organized the first camp in 1907 and published "Scouting for Boys" in 1908. Activities on Scouts’ Day typically include parades, church services, reaffirmation of the Scout Promise, and award presentations. Notable celebrations occur in countries such as Brazil, Denmark, Mexico, Portugal, Spain, and the United Kingdom, with a prominent event in Windsor Castle featuring a parade of Queen’s Scouts. In the Czech Republic, celebrations take place on April 24 due to the feast day of Adalbert of Prague coinciding with April 23.
