- EFK-Scout (also: Nybyggarscout; Scout Association of the Evangeliska Frikyrkan)

Famous quotes containing the words independent and/or associations:
“I was more independent than any farmer in Concord, for I was not anchored to a house or farm, but could follow the bent of my genius, which is a very crooked one, every moment.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“There are many ways of discarding [books]. You can give them to friends,—or enemies,—or to associations or to poor Southern libraries. But the surest way is to lend them. Then they never come back to bother you.”
—Carolyn Wells (1862?–1942)
