Since 1963, St. George's Church has been the dedicated sponsor to the 38th Kitchener Scout Group. While some things in scouting have changed over the past 46 years, Scouting is still based on three broad principles which represent its fundamental beliefs. These include: - Duty to God: Defined as, The responsibility to adhere to spiritual principles, and thus to the religion that expresses them, and to accept the duties therefrom.
- Duty to Others: Defined as, The responsibility to one's local, national and global community members to promote peace, understanding and cooperation, through participation in the development of society, respect for the dignity of one's fellow-beings, and protection of the integrity of the natural world.
- Duty to Self: Defined as, The responsibility for the development of oneself to one's full potential physically, intellectually, spiritually and socially.
