What do you do when you have an area with over 200 Guides? Well in Dartmouth, we hold a special night just for them!
Guides Night Out took place on Friday night, with 208 of our area girls in attendance! The format? There isn’t one! From the time they walk in to the time they leave, there is very little structure. After opening announcements the Guides are free to go to whichever activity running that interests them.
This year the activities were:
Hand knitting

“We’re making this craft to hang in our room!
Selena and Julia from the 2nd Woodlawn Guides, like many Guides, could be found carrying their craft all night, to stop and work on it every now and again.
Picture frame crafting

“I like it here because I get to play with my friends!”– Imogen, 1st Lawrencetown Guides
T-Shirt type dyeing with sharpies

Twister

Games!

Making our National Service Project Pledge (over 200 pledges were made this night!)

“My pledge is I will try to reuse as much as possible, pick up garbage and throw it away. If I see someone littering I will tell them not to. I will protect nature from being trashed and I will teach others not to as well.– Tiffany, 1st Lawrencetown Guides
Photobooth

Guides wrote messages on the boards about why they are a Girl Guide or why Girls should be in the lead.

After all the activities were done and a snack was eater, girls had the whole pool to themselves! After they undid their bedrolls and watched a movie. A fewhours later, they woke up with a dance party, breakfast and then headed home.
Thanks to all the Guides, leaders and the Dartmouth Shore Special Events team for a great Guides Night Out!
