Hands Across the Border

This was Emery's first year participating in Hands Across the Border. Half of our troop was able to attend. We absolutely LOVE the location.....right in our backyard..so it's really easy to get a good parking spot!!

Emery, Alice, Addie, and Avery

Jason let us borrow a tent from the park and we pitched it in a prime spot..right by the Peace Arch

siblings could come too...yeah


The girls headed out with their "swaps"



They even let little sisters swap...it was pretty fun. There were some pretty neat swaps and then there were some swaps that..well.....we re-swapped :-)


Some troops were REALLY into the swapping!!



Then it was time for the ceremony




We got these super cool little fold up chairs for FREE





The bagpipes were super cool!
Overall, a great first experience for the Girlie Scouts and next year we will even be better prepared.
