EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, Senior Wolf Cub Sixer Marriott proudly holds the Cedar Totem or Grand Pa, a cherished pole competed for annually by the three cub packs in Bermuda during the 1920s. The image showcases the Cub Scout tradition that thrived in the colonial West Indies during this era. Marriott, dressed in his pristine Cub Scout uniform, dons the iconic red scarf, white shirt, and shorts adorned with various badges. His expression radiates a sense of accomplishment and pride as he holds the Grand Pa pole, its intricately carved wooden design reflecting the rich cultural heritage of the region. The Cedar Totem competition was an integral part of the Cub Scout customs and traditions in Bermuda. The annual event brought the three cub packs together, fostering camaraderie, friendly competition, and a deep respect for the island's history and traditions. The Grand Pa pole, passed down from generation to generation, represented the continuity of these customs and the enduring spirit of the Cub Scout movement in the Caribbean. This photograph offers a glimpse into the vibrant and rich history of Cub Scouting in Bermuda during the 1920s. The image encapsulates the essence of a bygone era, filled with tradition, colonialism, and the spirit of adventure that defined the Cub Scout experience. The Cedar Totem competition remains an essential part of the island's cultural heritage, serving as a testament to the enduring impact of the Cub Scout movement in the West Indies.
