5th Rainham Brownies
Our Pack

Who is in our Pack?
The Gnomes
A group of Brownies is called a Pack. There are usually 24 Brownies in our Pack. Our leader is called Brown Owl. We have two other Guiders - Mercedes and Natalie. There is also Panther, a Guider who moved away but sometimes comes back to help us and runs our website. We have four sixes: The Imps, The Gnomes, The Elves and The Pixies.

The Pixies
Pack Mascots
We have six Pack mascots. If we are helpful at Brownies we
may get to look after one of them between meetings.






Our Adopted Owl

 We have adopted an owl from Tomar Owl Sanctuary. He is a Tawny Owl called Coco.
