Changing the World - In the Community
What a wonderful representation from the County at last night's midnight walk in Stirling. Forth Valley is changing the world!
I was there helping with six of our Trefoil Guild, one (also a VP) coming down from her weekend break away just to "do her bit". Saw a Vice President, Guiders, Commissioners and Young Leaders all there too. I know there would be others I didn't know or didn't see.
It was a wonderful sight to see the Rugby field covered with ladies of all ages, dressed up in pyjamas, one as Batwoman, one girl with her "Hen Party" the week before she is married all wearing pink tiaras. I bet the majority of them all had links with Guiding at some point in their lives.
Despite media reports to the contrary there are a lot of good people out there - all changing the world.
Oh and the down side...
Spirits were high, the DJ was "warming" the ladies up, played Here come the girls and as they set off the heavens opened and the heaviest down pour fell, but it didn't suppress the ladies' spirits.
