Linking in.

When a Youth member begins to link into the Gipp's Guides they select to do three personal challenges.

• Service
• to Guiding
• To the community
• collaboratively organise an activity where either
• the community may attend
• Youth members
• District Team
• Region Members

            or

• They bring their friends and other Gipp's Guide members together.
• The third is active participation with
• The Gipp's Guide events
• The District events
• If possible the Region events
• Also finding out about and participation with State and other levels of Guiding events.

At any time the Gipp's Guide may Choose to make her Guide Promise.  When this occurs she may then register to have the Promise Ceremony with another Gipp's Guide being there to 'take' her Promise - This Gipp's Guide of course has already made her Promise.

Who are they?

At one of th years Australia Day Ceremonies the local Scouts have not recognised that there are Guides over eighteen in the vacinity.  There were puzzled as to who and what they are.  We'll they are the Gipp's Guides, and also one fourteen to eighteen youth member [white shirt] who has since linked into the Gipps Guides Unit.  Actually attending this Service was part of Jess's linking in selection of activities.

As such when the organiser found out who Jess was and what she represented Jess and another member of Youth were asked to raise the Australian Flag during this Years ceremony.
