THINKING
DAY POSTCARD EXCHANGE We wrote most of our postcards
over the last 2 weeks which we are sending
to Guides in other countries for Thinking day on 22nd February.
PLEASE make sure you have posted your
card and badge this weekend as many have a long way to go to reach
the Guides & Girl Scouts we have written to.
The postcards & badges which they
have sent to us are now beginning to arrive and we will hand them out on
22nd February - when we celebrate Thinking Day.

CHRISTMAS
OUTING
Our Christmas
Outing to ski at Hillend was great fun - we had 45 guides most
of whom had never skied before so it was hectic getting everyone's skis,
helmets and boots on in the short time we had.
Well done to the girls who managed to use the tows
after just an hours lesson...
3 Guides, Lucy
B, Sophie S and Eva D made their promise at the end of the evening.
