50 Years of Brownies and Guides

On 1 July 2009 the 7th Chatham Brownie and Guide Units were 50 years old having both been registered back in 1959. A special church parade was recently held to celebrate the occasion.

In celebration the girls are taking part in a challenge where they have to complete 50 activities.  Once completed the girls will be awarded the Laser Walking Challenge badge and Campfire Challenge badge and a certificate (badges attached).

The 50 challenges include making an edible campfire, going on a picnic, singing, cooking, taking part in a scavenger hunt and lots more fun activities. The girls have completed the challenge now and had a picnic at the Riverside Country Park, Gillingham on 3rd July. A birthday party will be held on 17th July. The photos below are some of the recent activities the Brownies and Guides have completed and also photos from the recent Brownie Pack Holiday and Guide Camp.
