The Gambia Scout Association, the national scouting organization of the Gambia, was founded in 1921, and became a member of the World Organization of the Scout Movement in 1984.

Activities

The coeducational Gambia Scout Association has 18,448 members as of 2008.[1]

Special activities include community service projects such as tree planting. Scouts regularly participate in camping and hiking. Music is also a very important part of Scouting in the Gambia, but because there is little money for instruments and sheet music, there is a waiting list to get into the Scout band, and they learn all their music by ear. {{Citation needed|date=June 2009}}

Presidents

  • Alhaji Alieu Ebrima Cham Joof served the movement from 1938 to 2005; former President of the Gambia National Scout Council; scholar on the history of scouting in the Gambia; and first Gambian to be awarded the Wood Badge.[2][3]
  • In 2007, David Hafner replaced Alieu Mamar Njie as chief commissioner.

Controversies

In September 2015, six executives of the association were arrested for conspiracy to commit a felony, obtaining money by false pretence and stealing a motor vehicle.[4][5]
