Sept 2011
How time flies!! Summer has been and gone, camps and holidays were good fun for all and I hope you all had good weather?
For the first time in 4 years my camp had a sun kissed week – no crisis weather to contend with!!!
As I travel the length and breadth of Wales visiting various functions it is clear that we provide fantastic opportunities for the youngest rainbow to our most senior Trefoil member. It’s our opportunity to Grow Guiding in Wales!! We would like to show the rest of the UK how good and glamorous Welsh Guiding is.
There have been many changes during this year with many more to come. Remember it’s you who make Guiding happen in Wales, so if you have any ideas pass them on to Broneirion and we will add them to our list – we have a little list!!!
We are constantly changing and updating our activities for today’s girl who will become tomorrow’s woman, as we also preserve our values to make Guiding in Wales a WOW event!
So well done and thanks for another great Guiding summer.
Best Wishes
