The guides are moving on to a fresh new campaign, ater For Tomorrow. » For a few months of the year girl guides wili move away from seiling cookies to launch a new, less tasty product-- bio-degrad- able, envmrnmentally-friendly, fragrance-free soaps. Bginning this ail the natural soap will be reachig yvour door via the nearest girl1gide. These soaps,g with no oil pro- ducts, packaged without. plastic wrap and in a box made of recycled paper, are designed to keep bWrowies and girl guides alike well informed and respon- sible citizens. The soap bas been on the sheives of girl1gude shops loca- ted at 398 BaylySt. W. mnAjax and at 121 Simcoe Street south in Oshawa since April.

The recyclable boeçes are accompanied by a comment card and, te date, the response has bee 94 per cent approval from residents of Durham Region. "Leaders of guide units are very positive of the future of the responsible soap," says Slauîghter. ."Pilans of expansion are already being considered,"but soap will remain the main target for the time being. A box of three soaps vith the g1r 1de logo will cost $6. FiVypercent of ail profits from the projected sales of the 200 000 boxes will go to varicus guide units and the National Council for Girl Guides of Canada. The guide programi bas aiways focused on the environmient. Badges and awards of merit can be earned ini wildlife, bird studies, camping and, other naturi activities.
