Monday, May 7, 2018 • Last Mountain Times 9 My Gold Chief Commissioner Award Service Project For my final year as a Ranger, I was working on my Gold Chief Commissioner Award, that requires me to do a service project that helps a group. It took over 20 hours to complete my project. In November, my Leader Bonnie Pratchler and I started talking about who I wanted to help. This took time as I wanted a project that would really help someone and make a different in their life. Finally in February, I decided on Regina Transition House, so I wrote them a letter asking if I could help them, plus along with my Unit who are also working on a National Service Project, the Action on Poverty Badge. The National Service Project (NSP) is a nationwide challenge focused on providing service and giving members an opportunity to live out our Mission together of making a difference in the world. With the help of my unit, we wanted to make what we call “Feel good bags” We collected items that may help women re-gain their self-confidence. I would like to help the Transition House as I have heard that many women need help and I would like to make a difference in a person’s life. I was thinking of making bag full with things like socks, underwear, personal toiletries, first-aid items, diapers, blankets, in re-usable bags. Stephanie, the Executive Director of Regina Transition House sent Girls arrange the items. On left in front- Mackenzie Craven and Éabha-Mai Daly in the back on the left is Leader Amber Craven, Karisa Gorrill and Brianna Yung. In the STARS helicopter. Eabha-Mai Daly in the front, then Hannah Kozachuk and Brianna Yung in the back. back an email agreeing to my request. The next part was to ask the community of Strasbourg to help! I sent letter to all the churches in Strasbourg asking for help, and then with the help of the girls and leader we handed out flyers to all the homes in Strasbourg, and then I handed out flyers in Bulyea. On April 3, the community dropped their donations at St. Rita church. In the afternoon, with help from the girls, Nina Yung, and my other Leader Amber Craven, we sorted the items, then I started to fill the bags. With the amazing outpouring support of the community we made 45 “Feel Good bags”, plus we had extra stuff that we put into bags and plus a few boxes of baby and kid’s items. A few member from my church and community give me cash to buy things that the shelter needed the most, so I bought clothing for the kids. My leader made arrangements for us to take the items to Transition House on April 5, so that morning we met at St. Rita church to load all the supplies. It took two vehicle to transport us kids to Regina. We met Stephanie at the shelter and gave her the bags. She told us all that they will be greatly appreciated by the women in the shelter. We then had a talk about healthy relationships. The girls were told that this was not just between boys and girls, but them and their parents or sibling. The girls made a support tree of who they would call if in trouble. We also talked about how being in Girl Guides is a great thing as it gives us another safe place to go, and we know our leaders are there for us. To finish off our afternoon, we planned a visit the STARS Air Ambulance. We were enjoying our visit, when the alarm what off. We were ushered off to side while the crew got ready to go. We got to stand by the gate and watch them lift off. This was very exciting for us to see! When we went back in the building our Leader talked about how great this was for us, but unfortunately it also meant someone was in trouble. It is great to know that we have STARS Air Ambulance in this province to help get someone to the hospital. As this cut our visit short we headed to Western Pizza for supper. I am very happy that I finished all my requirements for my Gold Chief Commissioner Award. I send a special thank you to the following people for helping me achieve this Award: my family, the girls in my unit, the leaders in my unit, and all the members of my community who donated items for the Feel Good Bags. -Karisa Gorrill, 3rd year Ranger, 1st Strasbourg Guiding Unit up to $250 TRADE-IN CREDIT www.thewirelessage.com cupe5430.ca Licensed PracticaI Nurses Caring Professionals LPNs are skilled, competent, and caring professionals who provide high quality nursing care.
