 | Christmas Weekend 4 - 6 December 2009 The 3 Guide Units in the District shared an enjoyable weekend at Paxwood, trying their hands at a variety of different Christmas crafts. After a fabulous traditional Christmas Dinner, the Guides entertained us with a variety of songs, dances and sketches. Not to be outdone by the Guides, the Guiders closed the evening with their own 'party piece'. A huge thanks goes to all the Guiders who gave up their weekend and worked hard to make the weekend such a success.

 | "I'm a Guide... Get Me Out of Here" Camp A group of 21 Guides and 7 Guiders from around the District enjoyed a fun packed weekend at Cudham. Not put off by the weather, the girls had a brilliant time. They cooked their own lunch and made cardboard box ovens. They rose to a variety of challenges in the style of 'I'm a celebrity... get me out of here'. They had to rescue stars from the goo - 'baked beans'; followed a blindfold trail; walked through 'maggots' - spaghetti; climbed through the 'spider's web'; negotiated the assault course carrying a cup of water and slid down the water slide. They certainly earned their shower that day! The evening meal was supplemented by the 'bush tucker trial'. Other activities during the weekend included archery and grass sleding. Strong winds and heavy rain battered the camp site during the early hours of the morning, but nothing that tired Guiders and a mallet couldn't sort out. Miraculously we managed to take down all the tents in the dry! Thanks to all you helped to make the weekend such a success!
