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.
Dear friends, I am seeking a loving, quiet home for our dear kitty, Hope. She is sadly being bullied by our other cats and really is a gentle soul who needs to be the only cat in a family. She just turned 8 years old and is fully microchipped, fixed and just had all vaccinations updated 1 month ago… View moreDear friends, I am seeking a loving, quiet home for our dear kitty, Hope. She is sadly being bullied by our other cats and really is a gentle soul who needs to be the only cat in a family. She just turned 8 years old and is fully microchipped, fixed and just had all vaccinations updated 1 month ago (so she isn't due back to vet until 1 year from now.) She loves to lay on her back like an otter and is very mellow and affectionate. Please message me directly if you are interested. Thank you!

A spine-tingling and terrifying ghost story full of shocks, twists, gothic atmosphere and a good measure of comedy!...
The Revival is a play about a play, where our audience instantaneously become the invisible bystanders to a dress rehearsal that is not going at all well.
Synopsis:
The cast of Lucian O’Keefe’s 1946 classic ghost play Scared to Death are gathered and ready for their final dress rehearsal before opening night. Actors are bickering, one of them can’t learn their lines, the director is on the edge of a nervous breakdown and to top it all off, the ghostly happenings of the play seem to be encroaching onto the real world. Slowly but surely fear takes hold as tales of the play’s curse seem to hold true and the cast find themselves caught up in a terrifying ghost story.
Selling on behalf. Only done approx 30000km. Not been used for the last 5 years.
