The first attempts at Scouting in Italy go back to 1910. They are due in part to the meeting of English gentlemen who were directly influenced by the work and ideas of [[Robert Baden-Powell]], with Italian educators already engaged in pedagogic activity within the new education of the beginning of the century.

The meeting between teacher Remo Molinari and [[Francis Vane]], an old aide of Baden-Powell's and a former Scout Commissioner of [[London]] before Baden-Powell ousted him from the Scout Association, led to the founding of the Ragazzi Esploratori Italiani on July 12, 1910, in [[Bagni di Lucca]], in [[Tuscany]]. The press coverage and the presence of King [[Victor Emmanuel III of Italy|Vittorio Emanuele III]] at San Rossore on November 6, 1910 gave much publicity to their initiative. This saw the creation of new troops under the name of Ragazzi Patrioti in Tuscany's cities of [[Lucca]], [[Pisa]] and [[Florence]]. The interest of authorities and educators peaked in [[Genoa]] and [[Lombardy]]. The organization was also known with other names, including ''Boy Scouts della Pace (Peace Boy Scouts)''.

Another important meeting took place in 1910, between English doctor and educator [[James Richardson Spensley]], who had met Baden-Powell, and a Catholic educator from Genoa, [[Mario Mazza]], would bear more durable fruits for Italian Scouting.
