2008 July > Girl Guides Canada Cord Ceremony

Congratulations to Rebecca and Laura who were recently awarded the Canada Cord at a ceremony held at Town Hall. The Cord is an advanced, nationally recognized leadership award for 13 to 15 year old girls who are in their final year of Pathfinders. There are several challenges a Pathfinder must complete in addition to following a Leadership or Camping event. As well, they must complete 15 hours of community service which includes not only community awareness, but also Environmental and Global awareness. Both Rebecca and Laura followed the Camping Path for the Cord. Their final camp was to plan and execute a safe and fun camp which they did in flying colours.
