The Scout Association (ScoutsTT) joined the nation in observing the national day of prayer and reflection on August 31, as part of the country’s 63rd Independence Day anniversary.

From San Fernando to Arima, Port of Spain to Tobago, scouts past and present gathered with their families at places of worship, wearing uniforms, national scarves and group scarves, as a visible expression of faith, family and freedom, the association said in a release.

“This Independence Day reminds us that true celebration lies in faith, family, and freedom. Our scouts came out to live this message by standing visibly in their communities, making their reflection meaningful through action and service,” said National Scout Commissioner Mark Ainsley John.
