Scouts are involved in conservation of endangered species of fish. Sea Scouting is an important element of Scouting in the Bahamas. The program emphasis is on developing the consciousness of youth towards education and participation in the community, as well as the values of the family. The Scouts own a recreational site in Adelaide Village, New Providence. The site was donated to the Scouts by the Bahamian government in 1926. It is used for activities such as camping and hiking. The membership badge of The Scout Association of the Bahamas until 2015 incorporated the marlin and flamingo, the heraldic supporters of the coat of arms of the Bahamas, as well as the flag of the Bahamas. The new emblem features a very stylized marlin and flamingo head, topped by a rounded black arrowhead, in the colors of the flag of the Bahamas. ==See also== * The Bahamas Girl Guides Association 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Scout Association of the Bahamas」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
