12th Epsom Brownie Guide Pack

The Brownies celebrated ‘World Book Day’ by making their own alphabet picture books. For Mothering Sunday, each Brownie made a card and decorated a trinket box for her mother and on17th March they celebrated St. Patrick’s Day by making spiral snakes and colouring a rainbow at the end of which was a crock of gold, i.e. chocolate coins.

At our last meeting before Easter the girls made chocolate Easter eggs and nests and Easter cards and baskets.

On 6^th March some of the girls went snowdrop picking at ‘The Durdans’, I was very grateful for Lynn, our Unit Helper, being there, as she took over from me when I wasn’t well. Unfortunately, for the first time ever, no Brownies came to the Church Parade on Mothering Sunday, but the snowdrops raised £18 for the ‘Lest We Forget Association’, thanks to the morning congregation who are always very generous.

I should like to draw your attention to the exhibition on 100 years of Guiding being held at Bourne Hall Museum from Sunday 28^th March to Saturday 17^th April.
