Enrollment
I hear a lot of guiders saying that they just don’t know what to do for enrollment or don’t want to do the same thing. So I thought I would make a list of enrollment Ideas for those of you who want to freshen up your enrollment. These are just a few ideas !
Any branch can :
- Have enrollment outside attach it to a camp or day camp
- Have your girls plan enrollment
- Invite your district or Area commissioner to do the pinning
- Have a multi branch enrollment( Many hands make light work)
- Use a instant meeting style enrollment (we are volunteers and you don’t always need to channel martha stewart and re-invent the wheel)
- use what you have flags, toadstool, or have the girls make what you need
- Have fun
Here’s a few pre-planed ideas for various branches
- Sparks https://www.girlguides.ca/web/Documents/AB/BrightIdeas/AB-BrightIdeas-SparkEnrollment.pdf ( this is an easy enrollment to add a theme to, rainbows, camping ect, )
- Brownie Forest enrollment http://www.girlguides.ca/WEB/Documents/AB/BrightIdeas/AB-BrightIdeas-BrownieForestEnrollment.pdf ( do it outside and you need less props)
- Harry potter enrollment would be great for guides http://www.girlguides.ca/WEB/Documents/AB/BrightIdeas/AB-BrightIdeas-HarryPotterEnrollment.pdf
- Pathfinders or Rangers would rock this Christmas enrollment http://www.girlguides.ca/WEB/Documents/AB/BrightIdeas/AB-BrightIdeas-ChristmasPathfinderEnrollment.pdf
Have fun at your enrollment and remember your celebrating the girls joining and returning to guiding, and thats something to celebrate !
