If so, the brigade wants to hear from you!
The 1st Auckland Cavell Girl Guide Unit turns 100 in July and is still seeking old girls to join the celebrations.
One of the first girl guide units to be formed in Auckland, the group is gearing up to commemorate its centenary.
A social afternoon is planned for July 3, kicking off at 2pm with historic guiding activities such as knot tying and making arm slings.
Guests will be treated to afternoon tea and a birthday cake before photographs are taken of the girls.
The day will end with a singalong around the campfire.
The next day, a church parade will march through St Andrews Church, Epsom, where the unit has been meeting since 1921.
Parishioners are invited to a morning tea after the procession.
The unit, initially known as the St Andrew's Peace Scout Group, is believed to be the first guide company which has kept going since it was launched.
It all started when eighteen-year-old Mona Burgin wrote to the Dominion chief scout Colonel Cosgrove, a New Zealand Boer War veteran, asking about Girl Peace Scouts.
He arranged to meet her in Queen St, Auckland and wrote she would recognize him by the red flower in his buttonhole.
Soon after the meeting Burgin formed the troop on July 6.
Girl Peace Scouts wore khaki uniforms and the St Andrews troop wore a red open-ended tie.
In 1923, the Dominion Council became affiliated with the original Girls Guides Association in London.
*Former unit members can email cavellgirlguidesnz@gmail.com for details of the centenary.

Welcome to The Village Square Trust.
The Village Square Trust a place for all to meet, learn, create and grow. It's where people from all walks of life come together and connect, and where creativity, relationship and community are woven together to create something beautiful.
Why have we rebranded?
The Trust was first formed in 1982 and was named the Knox Centre Trust. After almost 15 years, the goals and vision for the Trust had grown and expanded so it was renamed Parnell Community Trust. Now, after another 25 years of bringing our community together, we’ve once again outgrown our name.
With the help of marketing specialists Richards Partners, we believe we’ve now come up with a new name that’s more fitting for the Trust of today and our vision for the future.
What do you need to know?
Please rest assured that the various services we provide will remain the same. Same great services, same smiling faces – they might just have a different logo on their shirt!
Our new website villagesquare.org.nz is up and running and all traffic from our Parnell Trust website is being redirected here. Our email addresses have also changed – the usernames are the same but domain is now “@villagesquare.org.nz”. Don’t worry, we’re still receiving all emails that are being sent to our “@parnell.org.nz” addresses.
Over the next few months you’ll notice changes in our branding, signs and promotions. Feel free to reach out to us at any time or connect with us on social media if you have any thoughts or queries. As always, feel free to give us a call anytime.
What's winter like in your home? Do you:

If you answered 'yes' to any of the above, your home may need wall insulation. Insulmax retrofit wall insulation is the easy, hassle-free way to insulate your walls. And it's more affordable than you realise.
Finish the job - insulate your walls now and transform life at your place this winter and beyond.
This is certainly one of the more obvious errors in a child’s writing. Knowing which one to use can be confusing.
