One of my favorite pass times when I was younger was the Girl Guides. Unfortunately for me it now seems like long and distant memory
I thought I would look back. I remember all the bib bib dob dob or was that the Scouts……
History of guiding?
Well there was this fella called Robert Baden-Powell basically what he did was start up a boys club originally in on Brownsea Island in 1907. Following its success and after publishing a manual documenting the club, Baden-Powell soon found himself organizing the Boy Scout Movement.
Of course us girls wanted to get in on the action and following a relay at the Crystal Palace and what with us women not wanted to be left out some girls turned up too.
Because of the obvious interest that it seemed to generate from the Boys, Baden wanted to emulate the success for the Girls and asked his sister Agnes if she would manage the Girl Guide club. A few years later his wife Olave became involved
Did you know that’s the name however was originally the Girl Scouts, but it was changed as Baden did not want to encourage a tomboyish image for the girls and wanted a separate identity for the girls, independent form their brothers!!!! Baden-Powell decided that ‘Girl Guides’ would be a good name for young women following a trip to India where the word Guide referred to men going on very risky dangerous missions. Bring it on us women are prepared to take on death defying antics!
