As you already know, Singapore will be hosting the first Youth Olympic Games next year. The Olympic Flame will journey through the five continents starting from Greece to one city each in Africa, America, Asia, Europe and Oceania and finally in Singapore. Prior to this, people all over the world are invited to do deeds of Excellence, Friendship and Respect and share these deeds at the Million Deeds Challenge. This is in line with Girl Guide's 'A Good Turn a Day'.

I have registered 'SCGS Brownies' as a torch bearer and have submitted a deed under 'Friendship'. Please log in and share your good deeds and SCGS Brownies may become the top contributor. =)
