Thinking Day on February 22nd is traditionally the time in Guiding when we remember our friends over seas and this year was no exception.

Activities with an International theme included:

• A World evening run by the Little Staughton brownies with food, games and entertainment - to which parents and friends were invited.
• An activity afternoon in Linslade District to celebrate Thinking Day.

The international opportunities offered in Guiding extend beyond our thinking Day activities we provide a range of International camps, projects and community development opportunities for the older girl to link up with Guides across the world.

In 2001:

• Two Guides and one Young Leader from South Ouse District went on an International camp to Towcester.
• A Young Leader from potton spent New Year at an Australian International Camp.
• A Young Leader from Biggleswade was selected to go on an International camp in Denmark.
• Guiders from the 3rd Sundon Unit in Luton enjoyed an adventure holiday in Italy.

Such International opportunities are a great way to experience and gain a better understanding of different cultures as well as making friends across the globe.
