68 Baden-Powell Fellows and guests attended the World Fellowship
Event that took place from 19-22 April 2007 in Cape Town.
The most distinguished guest was His Majesty the King of Sweden.
The guests were welcomed at a sunset function at Appleton
on Signal Hill, had a tour of the Cape Peninsula and a walk
through Kirstenbosch garden. The new fellows were welcomed
during a gala dinner at Cape Town Castle on the Friday evening.
Many guests said that the highlight of the event was the
visit to the Guguletu Scout Centre and Hawequas
Scout ranch. This gave the guests an opportunity to talk to
local Scouts about their experiences within the South African
Scout Association.

the former Chief Scout, Nkwenkwe
Nkomo.
