Round the Regions - Tayside

Tayside Trefoil members have recently been Active, Creative and Supportive and Challenged.

Members continue to enjoy the national Trefoil challenges and those set by other countries and regions,
including some that come from Girlguiding. The Railway Challenge included a bit of a regression to
childhood, by building a railway on the floor, lots of fun.

Opportunities to meet with friends from neighbouring Trefoil Guilds are happy occasions. One such event
took place in Monifieth where over 60 members from Dundee and Angus enjoyed an inspiring talk about
how the colours and style we wear impact how we are perceived by others and how we feel about
ourselves. The talk was followed by a lovely afternoon tea.

Supporting Girlguiding is a privilege which Trefoil members enjoy. Supporting the Parkrun in Dundee was
one such event, as was forming part of a work party at the outdoor centre.

Supporting others can also be rewarding. Auchterarder Trefoil had a visit to Broughty Ferry Lifeboat
station where they handed over a donation of £100 towards the work of the RNLI.
Crieff Trefoil recently celebrated its 70th anniversary with a lovely afternoon tea and a visit from Alison
Plumber our National Chair. The afternoon included a singalong accompanied by a few Kazoo players!

Christmas is always a time to indulge in a bit of eating, crafting and fun and even a Christmas crime to
crack (or not as the case was!)

Montrose Trefoil recently had a great trip to Giant Lanterns at Edinburgh zoo.

Fun and friendship continue to be at the core of what we do at our meetings and at other events. Our
membership numbers have increased a bit recently and we hope to continue this trend.
