Annual Camp – Dates Needed
‘Sup dudes,
Hope everyone had an awesome time at J to the E to the D to the WARD last night!!
At the moment we are planning this year’s Annual Camp. As always we want every scout to come along. It will be during the Summer holidays, it will be in Ireland and it will be epic! We will try to pick a date that will suit as many scouts as possible.
Can anyone who has Holidays/Gaeltacht/Space Camp/Anything booked for the Summer let us know and we will work the dates around that? Can you please text/email or send us a message through Facebook?
Please let us know as soon as possible because we are going to book in the next week?
Gearlist for France
Yo Ravens, this is a listing of gear you will need for Annual Camp in France.
You will all have most of this gear already, remember this is Annual Camp and is an activity based holiday, so therfore it is unwise to bring your brand new designer clothes. There are no catwalks on the campsite!
Right so, here is the list.
Firstly, we will not be bringing our Uniforms, you will have to wear your neckerchief at all times so make sure you bring a couple and also spare woggles.
Hiking boots
Runners (old for water sports)
A few changes of clothes
Good waterproof raincoat with hood
Rain trousers
Spare socks, underwear
Warm fleece , jumper, although its summer !!!
Pyjamas
Swim gear (only speedos or short swimming shorts because the French don’t let you into water parks with normal shorts)
Towel
Sun cream
Medications, to be handed to Leaders
Insect repellant
personal first aid kit
Toiletries
A bed sheet/sleeping bag liner. (not a sleeping bag)
Water bottle
Torch
A few black bags
Whistle
Camera
A small day bag
All in a normal bag not a rucksack because it will be easier to load the bus.
if you have any questions leave a comment.
