Hundreds of Oxfordshire Guides joined their colleagues from around the world for an adventure week.
Nearly 900 Guides, Rangers and Young Leaders from the county camped at the European School, Culham, for Quest 2010.
They were joined by guides from as far away as Australia, Fiji, Sudan, South Africa, Nigeria, Lebanon and Pakistan.
Among the activities on offer were wall climbing, kayaking, African drumming and archery.
Oxford West and Abingdon MP Nicola Blackwood attended the opening ceremony of the event, which also coincided with Girlguiding UK’s 100th anniversary.
Carol Dunne, county commissioner for Girlguiding Oxfordshire, said: “Quest 2010 was an unforgettable, once in a lifetime event for all those taking part.
“They had the chance to try something new and exciting, and make new friends with Guides from around the world.
“It’s particularly special this year as we celebrate our centenary and also look forward to a bright future with Girlguiding Oxfordshire still going strong”.
