8am This Morning- Were You There?


Guest

Recommended Posts

I was just wondering, how many fellow forum members are involved in Scouting or Guiding and were renewing their promises at 8am this morning.

 

We had a brilliant sleepover/camp ( all children were asleep by midnight and earliest riser was 5.30) then rounded it off with the sunrise ceremony in the blazing sunshine.

Not there myself but heard a lot about it on the radio ( centenary celebrations) and also aware of it because I rent my preschool hall from a scout group.

Don't know why but it seems to me that scouts have been around for longer than 100 years, here's wishing all scouters another successful 100+ years. :o

Hear hear! My Brownies and I were invited to our local centenary celebrations - day camp visitors on one of the worst weather days I can remember. Unless you count the millennium scout camp when scout leaders were cayaking out of the car park!

 

Many congratulations one and all - and here's to our own centenary celebrations which I understand are in an advanced stage of planning...

I was in my car driving to work but listened to the great coverage by Five Live and renewed my promise as a former Brownie, Guide, Young Leader and Beaver Scout Leader (anyone would think that I liked kids :o )

 

I was fortunate enough to be in the Brownies when it was the 75th anniversary (now I feel old) and when I was at Guide Camp, we had a visit from Baden-Powell's grand daughter.

 

There is a lot of misrepresentation about the scout/guide movement, but it certainly stood me in good stead for being indpedent, learning leadership skills and showing empathy towards others.

 

Here's to the next 100 years!
