I'm a Guider in Northwestern Ontario and I had a question for you. You mentioned having a badge tester for your unit. Could you explain what she does exactly? The reason I'm asking is that the Guide Unit in my community is struggling with getting the girls to work on badges and I would like some tips and pointers. Thanks, Sarah

Hi Sarah, our badge tester sits at a table at one end of the gym and meets with the girls one-on-one during the meeting and reviews how they completed the badge. :) It's a bit less intimidating than having the girls present to the whole unit. This takes place during the meeting and the girls go back to their activities after sitting with the badge tester for their evaluation.
