This is what Link looks like

What happens when Link members get together for the Young Guiders’ Retreat in Nova Scotia? See for yourself!

We didn’t all know each other when we arrived…

… but we made sure we got silly with each other fairly quickly! We did some chocolate tasting and puzzles, then Heads-Up and Charades were a big hit!

We had a relaxing morning of yoga, and started brainstorming for International Women’s Day. A simple lunch was followed by some snowshoeing around the Lewis Lake site!

We came inside for some more games – Anomia and Scattergories (the card game).

Then our Provincial Arts Adviser led us in a Twinning 2020 discussion and activity – such a great way to learn about WAGGGS and our global Guiding sisters!

We were joined by the Provincial Commissioner, Kathy McKay!

Even dinner was chocolate-y.

Our dessert and evening craft was finger-painting with chocolate pudding. Can you imagine the mess we might make when we take this to our units?

We even made a small gallery of our creations.

Then we had a chance to reflect on why it’s so cool to be a #ggclink member. We can’t wait to see more people join us next time!
