Packington Girl Guides re-starts – Thursday Evenings in term-time

Posted by on

1st Packington Guides have reopened

They had their first meeting on Thursday 11th May 2017.

The Unit meets Thursdays in term time at Packington Memorial Hall from 18:30-20:00 (unless we are out and about!).

There are currently spaces for girls aged 10-14.

The unit has already started working on a Denmark Challenge badge – if you notice the smell of freshly baked Danish pastries it could be Packington Guides.
The following are planned for the rest of the term:

  • Ashby Spa and Ivanhoe District’s Dress up and Dance Evening in aid of MacMillan and Smalls for All;
  • Weekend camp, and
  • Ashby Division Swimming and BBQ evening.
  • We also hope to walk some of the Leicestershire Round, try out some crafts and start working on the Leicestershire Centenary Challenge.

Leicestershire Girlguiding are supporting the Smalls for All Charity (https://www.smallsforall.org/) so we are collecting:

  • New ladies pants size 8-16
  • New children’s pants age 5-15
  • New or gently-worn bras

Interested in Girlguiding? You would be welcome to join as a Unit Helper or Leader. Feel free to come for a taster meeting!
