I am going to try some of your activities with my Rainbows. I also did the same Pilot scheme as you, my Rainbows found it very hard going! but liked the badge. Thank you for such great ideas.

comment: Congratulations on such a fantastic site, someone is working vary hard at it!!! I've just returned from a very successful meeting making a version of your Fathers Day Cards, everyone said "where do you get such good ideas from?", I have to admit I pinch most of them! As I am a fairly new Rainbow Guider I would find it very helpful if you could describe in a little more detail what it is that you do at a Promise Ceremony, ours just kind of stand on our Rainbow, say the Promise and jump off, not very memorable!!

Thank you, keep up the good work.

comment: Hello everyone, I have finally checked out the website, Claire has been telling me to do so for months. Its lovely, really colourful and informative. I enjoyed looking at the photos from 1997 and 1998 when I was assistant guider with you. I still have some lovely memories and think of all the guiders. Eleanor is now in guides in Bruton, Somerset.

Will look in again soon, keep up the good work Claire!!

comment: You are fast becoming my number one source of information when I'm stuck for a bright idea! Fabulous site. Loved the Rainbow pencil tops, which I shamelessly stole (though I did have the grace not to pass them off as my own idea)! We are the Corpus Christi Rainbows in Boscombe, near Bournemouth - I will have to reciprocate by sending you news of what we've done to make up for all the ideas you've given me!

This is my first year as a 'Spark' leader, but I was an assistant 'Brownie' leader last year. (2000) I am also a Guide leader this year for the first time. Maybe we can send some info to each other about our groups. My first 'Spark' meeting is tomorrow night. Monday September 24, 2001. Hope you get this message.

Thanks, Sandra Heywood

I am leaving a message so you will know that the work you have put into your site has been appreciated and will be used by girls "down-under". It is summer here and has been hot - up between 36' and 40'c. We are from Hampton, a suburb of Melbourne - can you find Melbourne on the map?

Guide Greetings.........

comment: I thought that this site was extremely helpful. I would however be grateful if you could e-mail, as we have recently set up a Rainbow Unit and would be grateful for any tips, especially about fees, etc and what you believe would be a right amount of money to spend per girl. Very grateful for any help.

Tuesday, February 27, 2001 at 18:03:49

comment: It states on your page that the promise badge is sewn onto the pocket which is incorrect. It is sewn at the top of the tabbard touching the binding tape. Sorry.

Friday, February 23, 2001 at 14:36:59

Apologies, but I was so involved with the Millennium Challenge when we constructed the site, that I missed this one. Thanks for pointing it out, it's now corrected. Claire.

comment: Hello there it's a very nice page you have here I am a Assistant Joey Leader in New South Wales Australia Joeys are aged between 6-8 years of age and I thought you might be interested in the following

A friend of mine has set up an email list for Leaders so that they can share programs for Joeys, Keas, rainbows etc.

You can chat to lots of people at once...through email and put ideas in shared files so that everyone can access them at anytime (only members of the list can access them)...no need to keep sending the same thing over and over again.

If you would like to join go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/miniscouts

PS...spread the word amongst your Leader friends. If you wont anymore info on the group just email me and I would be happy to help

comment: Fantastic site. I have just taken over Rainbows after doing Brownies for 21 years and although I work with 4 year olds I am feeling a little like a duck out of water. Hope you don't mind if I use some of your ideas. Many thanks for putting me on the right track.

comment: I am a young leader at a Rainbow unit in Danbury, Essex and I think having a Rainbow web-site is a brilliant idea- hopefully it will encourage more girls and women to get involved with guiding at this level. The photos are lovely!

comment: I am one of the leaders at a Rainbow unit in Coventry and it is nice to see the format other Rainbows follow. We don't have a web site as yet.

comment: This looks lovely! I am actually looking for a Guide Chat room for my 11 year old and just popped in. I am a SPARK leader in Nova Scotia, Canada, which is your equivalent. Interestingly enough, my SPARK name is ... that's right "Rainbow". I met a lovely Rainbow leader this year when she was visiting Halifax. She made you program sound very exciting. I will be back to browse again real soon.

Yours in Guiding,

comment: This site is certainly full of good ideas - I think for Father's Day, we shall be making either the 'car' keyring or the card with the chocolate medal on it! As a new leader, I find sites like this really useful for craft ideas. Keep it up as I shall be a regular visitor now!

comment: Congratulations on your new web site. Perhaps former members might like to contribute by sharing their memories of 1st Prestwood Rainbows and their favourite crafts or activities.

When I was a Unit Helper, I particularly enjoyed going to see Jack and the Beanstalk, and when we went strawberry picking.

comment: Hello,

I am so pleased to see 1st Prestwood Rainbows again. It seems a long time ago that we moved to Somerset and I had to leave as Assistant Guider. I hope everyone still has lots of fun and if any 'old Rainbows' want to contact me or Eleanor, we'd love to hear from you.

Love Maggie
