Experience what life was like on the Niagara Frontier during the time when the border was being shaped. Step back in history and join the Scout Brigade as troops from Canada and the United States gather to learn about the past and celebrate 190 years of peace and all within a Scouting environment of brotherhood.
The opportunity to learn about this period of history is unsurpassed.
