Girl Guides Present Gifts To Say Thank You
Submitted by Moose Jaw Girl Guides
The Moose Jaw Girl Guides recently presented a gift to show their appreciation to local healthcare workers to say thank you for their hard work, dedication and care during the pandemic.
Together, our Moose Jaw Sparks, Brownies, Guides, Pathfinders and Rangers created 381 keychains for the Dr F. H. Wigmore Regional Hospital staff.
The keychains consist of 7 beads - each representing the 7 principles of the guiding law, along with a hope charm at the bottom. The word hope was chosen because that’s what front line staff provided us for two years.
A tag is attached to each one - “We share with you our guiding light we hope will make your days quite bright.”
Pictured below is a collection of hospital staff (an X-ray technician, dialysis nurse, surgeon, food services, management and more) along with some of our Moose Jaw Girl Guide members who delivered the keychains and cookies.

Thank you all so much for coming out and agreeing to be in our photo.
We hope the hospital staff appreciates our gift.
It is our understanding that these keychains will be passed out during healthcare heroes week.
Our Girl Guides are so proud to be able to say thank you in this way and HOPE that this service project will give recipients a little boost of hope too.
We also donated a case of Girl Guide cookies to be shared with staff members throughout the hospital.
The keychain project began in Melfort, SK when the Girl Guides there decided to start a service project for hospital staff as a thank you during the pandemic.
