leave only footprints
geraldton leave only footprints event While camping was not possible due to Covid-19, Units got creative about how to adapt this beloved Guiding tradition. Geraldton Junior Girl Guides replaced their planned camp with a two-day nonresidential event held at Geraldton Foreshore and Maitland Park. Leave Only Footprints was held on 6-7 October and the girls wore event shirts throughout. 18 Guides attended, which was nearly 100% of the Unit, as well as two leaders, a parent helper and a junior leader. It was a full program, with everything from Colour Party to put up a handbuilt flagpole, night time campfire with families invited, crafts and games. Activities included gold fossicking, hug a tree, traffic signals, a beach-and-bush scavenger hunt, a shoe tracking game, an oldfashioned sack race, and the ever-popular waiter challenge. Bush and handcrafts included plaster of Paris footprints, jungle weaving and pinecone bird feeders.
