Cambswest 2000 Challange

The Cambswest 2000 Challenge has eight parts based on the eight points of Guiding.

Giving Service.

For this section we chose to collect animal food which will be donated to Woogreen Animal shelter. Each girl bought one tin of dog food and one tin of cat food to the meeting, these tins were then handed over to the division commissioner who then handed them over to the county office. They were later donated to Woodgreen.

Exploring the Arts

For this section each girl made two Thinking Day cards, these were then mailed to a collection point, they were then mailed around the world.
