Chocolate Night!

We get many requests from our Guides to do the Chocolate Go For It, which aside from chocolate tasting requires the girls to think about where chocolate comes from and learn a little of it's history.  So with this in mind, our Young Leader, Dolphin, planned an evening of fun activities themed around chocolate and sweets.  To begin, we had two quizzes - one true or false and one more cryptic.  For example can you work out what sweets are being described here 'Toothless Drink'....that's right 'Wine Gums'.  The rest of the evening was spent having a Malteser relay and trying to get a Cadbury's Button from our heads into our mouths.  Enjoy these pictures below:

Our Girls Need You!

Guiding in this region is growing at a fast pace and over the past two years Clackclose District Girlguiding has gone from strength to strength by increasing their current complement to encompass:

 2 x Rainbow Units

 3 x Brownie Units

 2 x Guide Units

 1 x Senior Section Unit

Due to the high demand of girls wanting to join the movement, Clackclose District is looking to expand by opening an additional Brownie and Guide Unit.

 

Working with young people and other volunteers helps develop valuable, transferable skills like event planning, time management, leadership skills and budgeting. Do you think you could make a difference to girls aged between 7 and 14 years of age and give something back to your local community? Are you looking for a rewarding challenge and think that you could get a new Unit off the ground?  Then you are the type of person that Clackclose District Girlguiding is looking for.

 

You can choose the volunteer role that matches your skills and time. Then we will help you build skills with training opportunities suited to your role that make your CV stand out. Take our Leadership Qualification, become a trained first aider or get qualified for outdoor activities such as climbing and kayaking.

Clackclose District has an excellent support network of qualified adult leaders, so you would not be alone in your Guiding journey.  Why not come along and join us at a taster session at one of our meetings and see what the girls  get up to or check us out on Twitter @CCGirlguiding
