Title
Cyprus Scouts Association, Centenary, Commemorative Issue
Description
Τhe Cyprus Scouts Association (C.S.A.) was founded in 1913 by N. K. Lanitis and N. Nikolaides with the help they received from the United Kingdom. It is the oldest youth organization in Cyprus. In 1961 the C.S.A. became a member of the World Scout Movement and it plays an active part in national, regional and international Scouting events.
The Scout movement is open to all boys and girls including those in the Sovereign Base Areas. They are active in all aspects of the social and cultural life of Cyprus. In 1980, the World Scout Committee awarded Savvas Kokkides the “Bronze Wolf”, the only distinction of the World Organization of the Scout Movement, for exceptional services to World Scouting.
In 2006 the members worked to assist with the refugee crisis caused by the war in Lebanon and one center accommodated 106 children who had been separated from their parents.
The Cyprus Scout Association has about 6000 active members within 54 Scout Goups.
