BROWN IFS
• ` PACK ONE:.
It was nice and cool in our
Brownie room this week after
the heat 'of the sun outside: We
opened with' .our game "Sandy
" Girl" and then into ceremonies
after which we all tried our hand
at semaphore and made a game
of it. The first one to recognize
—_ ..the -word -being signalled . alled became
the signaller for the next 'word
, and so on.
We are quite a heap smarter
than we were even one week
ago. We got carried away with
'this and left no time for pow
wow - just time for Brownie
prayers and away home for
supper.
that it was February 15th, 1965.
Susan: Jeffery 'got her Golden
Hand on June 12th and now will
be ready to fly up to Guides
,when the time comes..
We did a little " work on
Semaphore because it will be
used as' a sign language at. the
Revel, and then we sang some of
our songs before closing with
Taps:
PACK THREE:'
We enjoyed 'a special guest
this week. Mrs. (Pat) Stringer
who is a nurse, visited our Pack
and taught and tested us op first
aid.
We all really enjoyed learning
about thee- danger of dirt in a cut
, and how to bandage grazed,
knees.
With Mrs. Stringer's help we
cured quite a few imaginary
nosebleeds, and remained very
calm while getting help'°quickly
for the more severe casualties.
We 4would like to say "Thank
You" to Mrs. Stringer, for
'coming to our meeting and
Lending Us a Hand.
