A Big Thank You to all the fabulous Guiders, Young Leaders and Senior Section who helped make our Street Party A Brilliant Day. Bill the Dance Man was brilliant as usual (YOU WILL ALL BE PLEASED TO KNOW WE HAVE BOOKED HIM FOR END OF RAINBOW AND BROWNIE DAYS.) Angie was excellent with the dress designs and I can see some budding designers amoungst our Guides and Senior Section. And didn't the Rainbows and Brownies look excellent dressed up as princess Brides.
Thank You to you all (the certificates will be with you all soon).
