Over 150 Rainbows, Brownies,
Guides and Senior Section and Trefoil Guild members from Luton North
and Luton South Divisions entertained the public with a "living
history display" to celebrate 100 years of Girl Guiding at
Stockwood Discovery centre over the weekend of 3rd and 4th July
2010.
Both Girlguiding members and
members of the public took part in activities, reminiscing over
the archives, learning about how camping has evolved and seeing
how our members still enjoy an organisation which is as relevant
to today's girl as it was to the very first girls 100 years ago.
The public were invited to join
our members in campfire songs, making masks, semaphore, cleaning
brass, playing parachute games, watching a slide show of the many
exciting activities that our members have had the opportunity to
take part in during our centenary year and lots more.
The archives proved popular
with members of the public who were able to reminisce over the uniform
that they once wore. One member of the public who is no longer involved
even recited the Promise they had made as a Brownie.
