    100 YEARS of GIRL GUIDING
    and GIRL SCOUTING

    From 2010 to 2012, 10 million girls and young women are invited to join in the celebrations of the birth of Girl Guiding and Girl Scouting.

    So why are we celebrating for three years? These years mark the 100th birthday of Girl Guiding, which was founded in the UK in 1910, and the 100th birthday of Girls Scouting, which was founded in the USA in 1912.

    During the three year period from 2010-2012, all of WAGGGS’ activities will come under the banner of the centenary theme.
