WINGS: Five yearsin the making...
When did you know you were coming to WINGS2014? Two years ago? Last summer? At Christmas? In time for your Birthday? For
some people here, they have known they would be at WINGS2014, and planning for it, for the last five years.
Almost as soon as the last marquee was taken down for WINGS2009 the talk turned to WINGS2014 and the masterminding began.
Everything you now see around you is the result of that planning - from the toilets and showers to the amazing circus tent that makes The Squircle everything has had to
be considered, found and brought onto site. Just three weeks ago there was nothing here but trees, grass, a few sheep and, perhaps, the Queen enjoying an afternoon stroll.
As you look around, you are surrounded by the equivalent of a small town with everything that the thousands of people on site are going to need for the next seven days - water, electricity, food and even a mini hospital.
They are all here, though we hope to need some of these things less than others!It wasn’t just the site that needed to be organised and set up, 1,000 volunteers have also been recruited to assist with everything needed to keep WINGS running. Every one of those volunteers has been allocated a role, given training and welcomed into the WINGS family. A key part of this was the WINGS staff day, held in May in Maidenhead where every volunteer was invited to meet their teams and have their questions answered.
In all, an incredible achievement by a hardy band of Scouting and Guiding volunteers.
Scouts and Guides all over the world have been looking forwards to WINGS2014.
In Malta the 18th Marsascala Girl Guides had their photo taken for the Malta Independent. The group has been working hard throughout the past year to make this possible, by holding various fundraising activities and also succeeded in obtaining funds through the Youth in Action Programme co-funded
by the European Union to ease the expenses incurred for this adventure.
Here in Berkshire we’ve been preparing hard for WINGS. In April this year we successfully trained up eighteen boat helms ready for instructing on the Splash It Zone. Thank you to Berkshire Guides, British Canoe Union and Wokingham Waterside Centre for their help in making this happen.
