different table setting to create for meals

At times we have created ourselves, or sat at professionally done table settings for different events.

These events have been at :

• late night suppers,
• Learning about our Four World Centers

• buffet meals,
• formal table settings,
• Japanese table settings,
• finger food
• smorgess board
• hostessing by the plate and requesting refreshment types.
• picnics formal or impromtue,
• around campfires
• sitting on the ground at camp

There are basic Guide traditions and ettiquete that we have shown all the Guides over time. As the Guides learn one thing another is shown. From making the table settings to suit the occasion, to how to eat, pass food, cut meat, handle knives and forks, use fingers, wash hands, communicate, basic table manners, to hosting, serving and doing the dishes.

The more we get together

The more we get together is a song that was sung in 2005 at a camp fire. very soon after wards as part of the Achieve : Leadership part 2 this song was one of a few taught over a a month at Guides in preparation for a short campfire.

The more we get together, together, together,
The more we get together the happier we’ll be.
For your friends are my friends,
And my friends are your friends,
The more we get together the happier we’ll be.


The more we get together, together, together,
The more we get together the happier we’ll be.
For you know that I know,
And I know that you know,
The more we get together the happier we’ll be.

Organising meals.

Keeping up to date with these changes means that the guide Leaders are always checking up on what foods we eat and don't eat when they are helping the Guides organise a menu for a dinner, camp or other activity.

Scrapbooking is fun

Meetings making pictures, place mats, charts, decorating log and camp books, cards, invitations and just working together, having fun and doing our own thing too, while scrap booking have been terrific.
