Mangerton Ranger Guides
Most of our activities are combined with the Ranger Guide unit. See some photos
Ranger Guides is for girls aged between 14 and 18. I can speak from experience when I say that being part of the unit is a lot of fun.
Ranger Guides run their own meetings, decide what activities
they want to do, and are responsible for organising them.
The unit has a Chairperson, Treasurer, Secretary and other office
bearers, which enables the unit to function smoothly (more or
less).
There is a leader for this lot of ragamuffins, affectionately
referred to as 'Tich' (she's not exactly tall). Titch is
responsible for the paperwork, money, and keeping the girls on the
straight and narrow.
As I said before, Ark Royal and Mangerton have a lot of
combined activities.
They helped to paint the interior of the Ranger Den at our local
campsite, joined us for duty at Tingira.
And to tell the truth, we can't be bothered to run our own
meetings so we generally go along to the Ranger Guide meetings
and join in the fun.
Recent weekly activities have included:
Aquarobics (which is harder than it looks)
Unimovies (watching "The Matrix" at Wollongong Unit)
A Hike with 2nd Woonona Brownies (I won't mention who got lost, but it wasn't the Brownies)
Cooking (I missed this night, but apparantly the nachos was delicious)
A games night (It's amazing how competetive you can get playing Trivial Pursuit)
The Blood Bank ('once-a-term' service)
