Guides’ Own Format
This program can be stretched out or drawn back, depending on the audience for your Guides Own.
The most important part is the response section - and this will probably take the most time, also.
Intro:
Welcome to Guides’ Own
What is Guides’ Own? It is a Guides’ own reflection time, acceptable for people of all beliefs, where we can take time to think about our Promise and Law, as well as where we are, where we have been and where we are going.
Reminder about how we need to act at a Guides’ Own.
Item One
(Story, thought, song, reading…)
Item Two
(Story, thought, song, reading…)
Item Three (optional)
(Story, thought, song, reading…)
Response
In this part, Guides’ Own participants need to respond to what it is they have learnt, thought about or reflected on. They might write, explain, walk, search, build, make, colour, plan, brainstorm, play or share.
Item Four (optional)
(Story, thought, song, reading…)
Conclusion
Thank everyone for attending, thank your helpers, readers or singers, summarize the Guides’ Own, remind participants to leave quietly.
