The fun began at GM 2010 opening ceremonies. Floods of rainbow color hats walked onto the island and received glow sticks. (that nine of us handed out and unwrapped, it was quite a job) There was a slight hold up on getting to the island first. The train that took people to and from the island flipped over. Thank god no one was severly hurt.
In between hat colors and glow sticks Guelph Lake was a rainbow. OPP police officer, and flag bearers made their grand entrance. Kris Burton, our chief commissioner spoke about the fun times we will have in the 10 days and some great experiences. She talked about the history in Guiding 100 years ago.
The special events team entertained us with some song and dance including Sisters for a Century.
2500 of us welcomed Maddie the Moose in his girl guide costume. Maddie went through some rules for camp. Such has water bottles, closed toed shoes, 11pm quiet time and most of all HAVE FUN!!!
It was time to say good night. We sang our taps and then made our way back to the mainland after a hot exhausting day. Glow sticks again were lighting up the trail.
