SCOUTING IN JORDAN
THE JORDANIAN ASSOCIATION FOR
BOY SCOUTS AND GIRL GUIDES
Scouting was founded in Jordan in 1954. A year later, in 1955, Jordanian Scouting was recognized by the World Bureau, now WOSM. Membership in 1998 was 14,238 registered Scouts.
The Scout slogan is, "the Scout movement participates in development and worked to serve society."
Scouts and Guides participate in the painting of schools, building walls, laying floors in public places, conducting literacy campaigns, harvesting crops, visiting the poor, sick and aged.
Although the Association is for both boys and girls, the programs are separate and there are no mixed units.
Cubs- ages 7 to 10
Scouts- ages 10 to 14
Senior Scouts- ages 14 to 17
Rovers- ages 17 to 24
