GEM100 has landed!

AMENDED 13/4/15: You can now register for this event until May 8, 2015.

Let’s turn Perth blue and gold!

We anticipate this event to be the biggest one of our Centenary year. It’s particularly special because it takes place on Saturday June 28 – the exact day when Girl Guiding began in Western Australia 100 years ago.

And where better to hold it than right in the centre of Perth, where we’ll be highly visible to the public as we celebrate and have fun?!

Members and their families are all welcome to this major event in our State calendar. There will be a party atmosphere in Forrest Place with music and dancing, balloons, cake and games. We will also have games and activities in the Urban Orchard in the Cultural Centre precinct (over the railway line, near the state library, art gallery and museum).

At the Perth Town Hall, where the decision to begin the first Girl Guide Company was made, there will be an historic display featuring photos and memorabilia. This will be part of our celebrations and Guides will visit this to gain a sense of our rich history. There will be the opportunity outside the town hall to purchase Centenary merchandise from Guide Gear.

The end of our party will include a renewal of Promise for which Guides and Leaders will be awarded a special certificate and the day will have a surprise ending.

How special is it to be part of a hundredth birthday party? We guarantee your Girl Guides will remember this special day for many years to come.

But we do need you to register soon! To be safe, we recommend you register your anticipated numbers as soon as possible, and this MUST be done and paid by May 2, 2015 NOW May 8, 2015. Parents, friends and siblings of our members are welcome to attend, but must also be registered. So put out your call for expressions of interest right now so no one misses out of the fun!
