Since 1 August 2007, Scouting's Sunrise, more than 1800 pictures of this special celebration have been shared on Pikeo. Scouts from around the world have had the opportunity to show, through their own photos, how they marked this special day. The photos uploaded onto the Pikeo pages show just how a picture is truly worth a thousand words.

One hundred years have passed since the first experimental Scout camp was organised by Robert Baden-Powell on the island of Brownsea in 1907. Luxembourg Scouting was born six years later, in 1913, thanks to the initiative of Joseph Tockert, a local teacher. Today, there are more than 28 million Scouts throughout the world, with over 7,000 in Luxembourg. In light of the Centenary Scouting, a special exhibition has been organised by the Luxembourg City History Museum.

Norwegian Scouts and Guides took part in the Gifts for Peace by making an enormous peace quilt. Each patch in the peace quilt was made by a group of 5-10 Scouts and Guides. They decorated these with their wishes for the future, and the majority chose a peace theme. More than 5000 patches were submitted and the final result is a peace quilt made out of 600 patches. For practical reasons, the quilt is divided into 6 sections, each of 2x2 metres.
