Guides           

For Fun and Challenge

 

"I promise to do my best,

Be true to myself, my God/faith* and Canada;

I will help others

And accept the Guiding Law."

* Choose either the word God or faith according to your personal convictions.

 

Guides is a three-year program for 9- to 12-year olds.

In an objective-based program, Guides are challenged to explore

their individual interests and develop further understanding of their community,

the outdoor environment, their personal horizons and their futures. Co-operation is

emphasized and leadership skills are learned through activity-based games and

challenges. Guides may earn interest badges in a wide variety of topics from

Angler to Writer, with such things as Skater, Reporter, Pet-keeper, Law Awareness,

Gardener, Fire Safety, Dancer, Computer Skills, Canoe Safety and Aviation in between. 

Camping is an option attractive to many girls. It fosters self-esteem

through developing independence and a sense of achievement.

In Guides, girls have experiences they might never have if it were not for Guiding.
