Boy and Cub Scouts

Troop 3803 of the Boys Scouts of America is based in Lagos, Nigeria. It is composed of boys ages 11 to 18. On the Scouting Adventure, you advance through ranks and earn merit badges. Some of the merit badges that we are able to offer in Nigeria are Climbing, Citizenship of the World, Citizenship of the Nation, Citizenship of the Community, and Camping. (Due to our remote location, we are unable to offer all of the merit badges that are available.) Ranks include Second Class, Life, and Eagle. There are several ranks that Scouts can achieve, including Patrol Leader and, the highest, Senior Patrol Leader.
A troop consists of a Scout Master and an Assistant Scout Master (both adults), as well as several meaningful positions that the boys can hold. Our local troop meets every other Sunday.

Scouting is a great experience. It helps build confidence, leadership ability, character, and independence.
