Liphook District is a very busy one and takes part in so many events and activities that it would be impossible to list them all, but here are a few highlights from past years (not in any particular order):

~ Coach trips to Holiday on Ice shows.

~ Visits to the Body Shop HQ with free samples for all.

~ Participating in County netball tournaments- lots of fun.

~ Region Brownies Fundaze, Foxlease - Ariel runways, rope bridges, go-carts were just a few of the activities the girls tried.

Football fun day Portsmouth ~ Entering teams of Brownies and Guides for the County Football Fun Day - our teams did really well reaching the semi final, and all had a great day out. The leaders we amazed at the girl's football skills.

~ Girlguiding Hampshire East's Millennium celebrations at Southsea (STOMP) - lots of people and lots of pomp and pageantry.

~ County Bulb planting on Portsdown Hill, near Portsmouth.
