Wilf Blum founded “Canada’s famous Scout House Bugle Band” in 1937, as an non-traditional activity for members of his 1st Preston Scout Troop. In the following 30 years, Scout House became one of the continent’s most popular units, traveling from the Atlantic coast to the Midwest while compiling more than 80 major regional, national and international titles. Scout House was one of the first Canadian corps to compete in full field shows, and the stylized uniform, featuring tight black shorts, a high stepping marching style, and choreographed maneuvers on the field earned standing ovations at every performance.
