June

Thank God You’re Here! Like the TV show, we have discovered that our girls have a wonderful imagination and sense of humor to ensure this night was full of giggles and belly laughs.

The end of June saw us visiting one of our favourite activity centres, Don Bosco. Don Bosco gives the girls the opportunity to play basketball, snooker, pool, table tennis or work out on the trampoline. A game of basketball was started with siblings and guides taking sides and friendly rivalry started to show through. No one really knows who won (if you ask either side, they both say they did!), but the smiles say they both did!

Campfire - June

Campfires, songs and toasted marshmallows...who could ask for more? Emma, Jemma, Abby, Suzanne and Ann did a wonderful job leading the campfire songs. A big thanks to Beth who brought along her guitar for a little back ground music to assist in our sing alongs. Lorikeet brought along some damper and syrup to top off a night with the girls cooking the damper over the coals which was an experience.

On such a cold night it was wonderful to see the girls enjoy the toasty warmth created by the fire.

May

With the cold weather drawing in on us throughout May, we moved inside where we took a trip back to the 60’s and learnt how to tie dye. Shirts, pillow cases and tea towels got a make over worthy of any hippy’s wardrobe. Laura’s shirt was a hit, as was Brookes work of art! Brooke has since confessed that she has been begged by her siblings to create some more for them; Bravo Brooke!

We also had a night of pamper with foot massages, facials and manicures...oh, and chocolate with marshmallows! The girls finished up with a session of yoga with Trudie assisting with some sun salutations, and getting in harmony with their inner self, along with the background music from Twilight, and alot of giggles due to uncoordination a fun and informative night was had by all. And the floor got a good mopping due to all the spilt water from the foot spas!

Trivia Night

Last night we invited Glenmore Park Guides to join us for a night of trivia fun. We also invited our district leader, Bursaria, and our Region Leader, Kowanna.

5 girls from Glenmore unit turned up (sickness took a hold on their unit) and we began to introduce ourselves. Before long the games and questions were flying thick and fast. Interestingly enough the leaders' table did NOT know everything about guiding!!!

Congratulations to the winners of the night.... and to all the girls who won spot prizes of chocolate.
