Hi Families,
This week we are finishing up our cultural awareness badge with some fun activities about Chile, Ontario's "Twinning 2020" partner. For more information about Twinning 2020, please see this link.
To help us out, please have your Guide bring a toilet paper or paper towel roll for one of our activities.
We will also be making covers for our recipe books, which are coming along nicely. Thanks to all who sent in recipes!
Next week, we will finish up our recipe books, cover off a few loose ends, and work on planning for a couple of upcoming events.
Thinking Day: This year's theme is Connect with Guiding - exploring how connections unite us, inspire how we learn, share, grow and communicate with each other. To celebrate, we will be doing a community-wide event at St. Francis-Xavier High School on Monday, February 22, from 6:15pm to 8pm (please arrive as close to 6 as you can - it will be busy and they would like to start on time). Guides are asked to wear their full uniform, and bring dues, indoor shoes, as well as two books for our annual book exchange. The books should be at the Guides' reading level if possible; one will be donated to a needy school, while the other will be her contribution to a book exchange. The girls loved this activity last year and are looking forward to doing it again. **If your Guide cannot participate this evening, please let us know beforehand.
Upcoming Meetings:
Feb. 25 - MEETING CANCELLED (Replaced with St. FX event)
March 3 and March 10 - special meetings to cover our streetwise badge with StrongOrange.org - more details to follow!
March 17 - MEETING CANCELLED for March Break
Thank you!
Jen
