Hong Kong Girl Guides Association, Youth organization in Hong Kong, China.
The Hong Kong Girl Guides Association is a scouting organization in Hong Kong, China, open to girls and young women from the age of 4. It is divided into five sections named Happy Bee, Brownie, Guide, Ranger, and Golden Guide, each matching a different stage of a member's life.
The organization was founded in 1916 with the first Girl Guides Company and received formal recognition in 1919. It joined the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts in 1978, becoming part of the global movement.
Members take part in Christmas wreath competitions, overnight camps, and sports meets that bring groups together throughout the year. These gatherings are a regular part of how participants bond and grow within the organization.
New members are typically accepted between March and September, though conditions can vary by region. Anyone interested in joining should contact their nearest local center directly to find out about meeting times and current availability.
The association's emblem features a trefoil with notched edges that echo the shape of the Bauhinia blakeana flower. This flower is the official symbol of Hong Kong, giving the badge a direct visual link to the territory's own identity.
