1931 Association Bathing Sand Scoutmaster Seychelles Shorts Swim Swimming Scout Scouting Scouts
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment from the August Camp of the Seychelles Scouts in 1931. The image showcases a group of young Scouts, dressed in their iconic uniforms, taking a break from their daily activities to enjoy a refreshing sea bath. The Scoutmaster, dressed in his distinctive uniform, stands at the center, overseeing the scene with a watchful eye. The Scouts, with their shorts and short-sleeved shirts, appear to be fully immersed in the clear, turquoise waters of the Seychelles sea. The sandy beach, dotted with palm trees, adds to the idyllic setting. The Scouts seem to be fully engaged in the experience, with some splashing water at each other and others simply enjoying the tranquility of the moment. Bathing in the sea was a regular part of the daily routine during Scout camps in Seychelles. The practice not only provided a much-needed respite from the tropical heat but also helped the Scouts learn important survival skills. The August Camp, held annually, was an opportunity for Scouts from different parts of the island nation to come together, learn new skills, and build camaraderie. This photograph, taken in 1931, offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the experiences of Scouts in Seychelles over 90 years ago. The image is a testament to the enduring appeal of Scouting and the importance of connecting with nature, values that remain relevant even today.
