  • Campfire Ashes Pamphlet2008.Pages
    The Campfire Ashes Ashes taken from a campfire are sprinkled into the flames of the next campfire. The next morning, when the ashes are cold, they are stirred and each Girl Scout takes some with her to mix with her next campfire. If more than one Girl Scout brings ashes to the same campfire, the lists are combined—the dates and places of all campfires are recorded and passed on. As Girl Scouts travel, these ashes can circle the globe. It is the tradition that those actually present at the campfire can receive the ashes. “We carry our fellowship with us in these ashes from other campfires with other comrades in other lands. May the joining of the dead fires with the leaping flames symbolize once more the unbroken chain that binds Girl Scouts and Girl Guides around the world.” These ashes are from: 1925 National “Get Together”, Virginia, USA 1949 World Encampment, Camp Edith Macy, NY, USA Lady Baden-Powell 1950 Roundup, USA 1889-1977 1952 Regional Roundup, USA 1953 Regional Roundup, USA 1957 Australia and Canada 1959 National Roundup, Colorado Springs, CO, USA; National Junior Roundup, USA 1960 Kelowna, British Columbia Girl Guide Camp, CANADA International Encampment, SWEDEN Our Chalet, SWITZERLAND All State Encampment, USA International Campfire, GERMANY 1961 Roundup, USA 1962 National Roundup, Button Bay, VT, USA Our Chalet, SWITZERLAND 1963 All States Encampment, MI, USA All States Campout, AZ, USA 1964 All State Arizona Project, USA 1965 All State Campout, NC, USA Girl Guides, HOLLAND Tierra del Oro/Kelowna British Columbia Gypsy Tour,

    WAGGGs Pin Ceremony Preparation: Print out the WAGGGS Pin and cut apart Print the blue background Print the template to build your pin upon Purchase WAGGGS pins for any girls receiving Don’t forget the camera To start: All participants stand in a horseshoe. Use a table to piece together the different pieces of a WAGGGS pin. Leader: The horseshoe formation symbolizes the open friendship circle. In the open end of the horseshoe stand our sister Girl Scouts and Girl Guides around the world. If they were actually here, our horseshoe would become a completed circle, having no beginning or end. [Then come a series of questions and answers, which you can divide up in any practical way. We had the people who asked the questions come forward to place the part of the pin they asked about on the felt board while someone else read the answer.] What is the world pin? It is the pin of the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts. We are going to construct such a pin. As we do, let us consider very carefully the reason for its color and design. Then we will know how deep a feeling of international friendship it can inspire in it. What does the gold circle around the edge stand for? The gold band surrounding our pin symbolizes the sun that shines on children all over the world. Why is the world pin blue? The blue background symbolizes the sky above us, all over the world. Why do we have a trefoil in the World pin? The gold trefoil is the sign of Girl Scouting and Girl Guiding around the world.
