Calling all future Congresswomen!
Do you want to make a difference to Guiding in your Region?
Are you a Guide, aged between 12 and a half, and 14? Do you have great ideas on how to make Guiding bigger and better in our Region? Then we want YOU!
We are starting a Youth Congress for the Region, and are seeking expressions of interest from all of you to be a part of it.
The Congress will be trialled with older Guides in term two of 2018, and will be expanded to include representatives from the other age groups going forward.
There will be three representatives from each age group, and our hope is to have every District in the Region represented.
There will be one meeting per term, with our first meeting early in term two. We anticipate the time commitment to be around four hours a term.
If you would like to be considered, please email a brief expression of interest, addressing the points below, to banjorah.act@gmail.com and/or wallaby.hackett@gmail.com by Friday 30 March, 2018. We are hoping to interview applicants the following week, after the long weekend.
In your application, please tell us about:
- Your Guiding history
- Why you're nominating to be part of the Youth Congress
- Where Guiding is taking you (your Guiding path)
- What your interests are
- What you would like to change (in Guiding and more broadly) if you could
We hope to hear from you soon.
Yours in Guiding,
Anna Cook (Banjorah) and Tammy Hackett (Wallaby)
