Bayfield Guiding invites area gids and
young women to join them for 60th year
Lakeshore Advance
Attention girls and young women of
the community, have you ever gone
behind the scenes at the Stratford Fes-
tival Theatre? Had a pen pal from Alice
Srtngs, Australia? Played in a play-
ound made entirely out of ice?
Worked with clay under the direction
of a professional to create a beautiful
vase? Gotten your hands dirty plant-
ing a tree or harvesting the garden you
planted?
If you were a member of Hayfield
Guiding last year you could answer,
"yes" to all those questions. Why not
join them this year?
The benefits of being a member of
Bayfield Guiding are many - girls
enjoy trying a variety of new skills in a
comfortable, relaxed environment.
They also learn an appreciation of the
world around them by exploring their
own great outdoors as well as taking a
virtual look at countries far, far away.
'they are instilled with the desire to do
service for their community, their
environment and for others
across the globe. And perhaps
above all they develop confi-
dence and make lasting friend-
ships all in the name of fun!
The season lasts from mid-
September to early June. This
year marks the 60th anniver-
sary of Girl Guides in Bayfield
so members both new and
returning should have a lot to
celebrate..
