Hello,
Yes, it's YeSS time again! Those of you who are on the ball may have spotted that we've launched the Girlguiding UK Centenary Stamps. Have you had a chance to look yet? In particular, there's lots of opportunities for you to get involved with our Centenary projects. Scroll down for more details.

Sail away on an Ultimate Adventure!

Fancy crewing the Jubilee Sailing Trust’s fully accessible STS Lord Nelson around the British Isles during the summer of 2010? The Ultimate Tall Ship Adventure opportunities have now been extended to adult members on some legs. This includes four voyages up to age 30 and two for those aged 64 and under. For more information and bookings, visit the Centenary website.

Sail away now!

Come and join us at the NEC Birmingham, 26-28 March 2010 for a fun-packed weekend. Climb Spider Mountain, listen to true adventurers such as Sir Ranulph Fiennes talk about their experiences and enjoy the other exhibitions. Just quote 'Guides1'

GOLD & INTOPS

If you're looking to take part in an international adventure in 2011, then make sure you've signed up for INTOPS 2010.
INTOPS is your chance to learn about all the international opportunities available to you and could lead to an opportunity to embark on a GOLD Project in far flung places such as Malawi, Russia and many more.

Senior Section permit

Due to the amendments on some of the modules for the Camp and Holiday scheme, we think it is a good idea to tell you about the changes that have been made to the Senior Section permit!

Find out what's changed.

Active kids

2010 Sainsburys Active Kids kicks off on 17 February, you can then start collecting vouchers to get some great sports equipment and experiences for your unit.

Make sure you don't miss out and visit the Active Kids website.

Visit the forum!

Have you visited the Senior Section forum recently? It's easy to use and a great way to swap ideas and meet other Senior Section members.

Are you excited about the Centenary?

There are lots of projects and opportunities for you to get involved.

Are you coming to Fusion on 4 August for the biggest single event of the Centenary year?  You can come as part of a group from your County, division or unit.  If you are over 16, you can also apply to be a staff member - we’ll need staff on the day as well as some to camp and stay for several days. For all those performers out there you can apply for a busking spot as a group or individual to sing, dance, play an instrument or show off other performance skills.

Get your girls to create a horticultural design and they could win the chance to exhibit at the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) Hampton Court Flower Show. This latest Centenary competition is a rare opportunity to show off your horticultural talents and show the world what's great about guiding in our Centenary.

Everyone loves a good story, so why aren’t you telling yours? Heritage is as much about the recent past as about our beginnings in 1909 so why not add your memories to the bank of guiding stories. Visit the Story Bank  to tell us all about your favourite guiding adventures, events and Centenary celebrations through text, photos and video!
