Brownies 40th Birthday - 1958 December


Spire Magazine

"The 1st Hampton Hill Brownie Pack this year celebrates its 40th birthday, having a record of continuous activity from the foundation in November 1918. Even during the blackout of the war years meetings were then held in the home of the Guider, Mrs. Austin.

To mark the occasion a party was held in the Hall on Saturday, November 8th, when the guests included the District Commissioner, District Guide Captain and a former Guider, Miss O. Brown. At the beginning of the party the Brownies lined up to signal a welcome to Twickenham’s Youth Officer, Miss S. Baker, who then presented them with an owl for the magic circle. Film strips of Guiding activities were shown by Mr. Michael Rooney. The catering was looked after by the parents.


Infortunately the size of the Pack has had to be restricted in recent months, as there is only Brown Owl in charge and help is badly needed to train the brownies in their tests.
