Guides Renewal of Promises
On an extraordinarily hot morning (at 7.30am!) the Mayor and Mayoress joined the Girl Guide Uniformed Groups, at the Ampitheatre in Folkestone's Lower Leas Park to witness the Renewal of Promises in this centenary year.
In a totally different atmosphere from the previous night, the young people in their groups of Rainbows, Brownies, Guides, Rangers and their leaders, renewed their promises in front of the Mayor and Mayoress.
The quiet and dignified manner in which our young people undertook this task was humbling. Poems were read and words of dedication made and each section of the movement stood in turn to salute and make their promises.
