Adventure 100 is a centenary challenge that all members can take part in. It can be done as individuals, sixes or as a unit. 1st Carluke Brownies have embraced the challenge as a unit.

There are 10 adventures within the centenary challenge. We had to complete at least 1 challenge from each adventure and collect a minimum of 100 points. Some of the challenges have still to be completed but we can now all wear our special Adventure 100 badge.
