Ninety landmarks across the province will light up in “guiding blue” after dark on Monday, and thousands of Girl Guides members are expected to decorate their homes and neighbourhoods in blue regalia.
The event also marks World Thinking Day – a “day of international friendship,” according to a Girl Guides news release – which is annually celebrated by the Girl Guides.
“It is an opportunity to speak out on issues that affect girls and young women, celebrate the founding of Girl Guides, and be connected to the 10 million members around the world who are part of the Guiding movement,” the release states.
Participating sites include places like 小蓝视频 Place, Canada Place, the Olympic Cauldron, Science World, and the 小蓝视频 legislature.
On the North Shore, North Vancouver City Hall, Presentation House Theatre, Lonsdale Quay Market, the office of North Vancouver-Lonsdale MLA Bowinn Ma, Park Royal, and the 小蓝视频 Girl Guides’ provincial office on West Esplanade are expected to glow blue as well.
“Despite the challenges of COVID-19, thousands of 小蓝视频 girls have stayed connected with online Girl Guide meetings, live virtual events, and safe outdoor activities. Now more than ever, it’s important for girls to develop relationships and make connections in their community. Guiding Lights Across 小蓝视频 is an exciting opportunity to celebrate how girls have kept their ‘Guiding lights’ shining bright in unprecedented times,” the release states.
