Every year the Gauteng Region holds a fun day of competitive games. It used to be called Splish Splash and involved water games but now it is called the Masidlale Games and this year water was omitted. It is also a fundraising event so a jumping castle, tea garden, food stalls and other marked stalls are organised. Each district has to organise a base. I organised the Wilds base which involved making an emergency stretcher from blankets and gum poles and carrying one member across the course and then changing the patient.
Contestants ranged from Teddies
to Brownies,
to young leaders
Two of the Waverley Guides attended and joined up with the 3rd Randburg Guides to make a team of five.
Games included tying spaghetti in knots,
the stretcher base,
There was also picking up marbles with toes and then hopping across the course to deposit them into a bowl, throwing bean bags, rolling balls through tubes and joining the team’s tubes and others. Although we only had two Guides attending, those two had great fun.
