On Friday night, most OPs attended this event as Leaders with their Guide Units, but as we do every year, we spent about an hour together at the Zoo catching up on the latest OP goss. This year over 30 OPs gathered to discuss upcoming OP events, international service opportunities such as G.O.L.D. and all things OP mixed with a few giggles!

On Saturday night, 10 OPs stood on the field at Telstra Stadium in pink ponchos along with 13 100 other women and men to raise money and awareness for the Breast Cancer Network Australia. To be surrounded by breast cancer survivors, families breast cancer has touched, and supporters was an inspiring and emotional experience. We then watched Sydney beat St Kilda in the AFL from the nosebleed stands.  It was absurd to be able to reach out and almost touch the Telstra Stadium roof - enjoyable though.  Consider taking your Guide Unit next year.  The OPs are definitely going again, although a few of us discovered we really weren’t AFL fans and have planned dinner instead of staying for the game next time!
