Those going for the camp, please make sure you read in DETAIL and ASK QUESTIONS!
1. Cooking teams
IF you haven’t started, PLEASE DON’T DELAY!!!
COMMUNICATE and be clear with one another who is bringing what.
Tip: click here and use this table to help you plan.
If you are trying to figure out what to cook, these questions can help:
- What type of food/ingredients that does not need to be kept cold/chilled?
- NO PORK PRODUCTS allowed!
- The activities will require a lot of energy – what food can give me that? (hint: carbohydrates)
- Instead of vegetables only – consider what fruits are suitable as substitute?
- You are not restricted only use your messtins, you can bring a pan if you like (just remember you are hiking to the campsite with whatever you will bring).
- Instant noodles – not recommended but if you want – limit to maximum 1 meal only! If you bring more than 1 meal’s worth, the officers will be thanking you for providing their supper! 😀
2. Those with allergies or medical conditions
BRING YOUR OWN medication!
3. What to pack?
We are NOT telling you what to bring exactly.
Instead the following questions will be helpful.
- How much clothes do I need for 4 days and 3 nights?
- Do I want to do some light washing if I don’t want to bring that many? How long would clothes take to dry?
- What happens if it rains?
- Do I need to consider something to cover my head in case it gets hot?
- Should I bring something to wear to protect from the rain?
- How do I keep hydrated (to store drinking water that would be provided)?
- What type of bag should I use for hiking a few kilometers to the campsite with my clothes, food and equipment?
- What type of shoes should I use that can be suitable for hiking, caving, water rafting and leisure time at the camp?
A very cheap and good recommendation for shoes other than your expensive brand names – check out the The Adidas Kampung 😛 - We are sleeping in tents – how do I keep warm?
- If I want to be a little bit more comfortable – should I have insulation from the ground?
- The campsite does not have electricity – how do I see at night?
- Are mosquitoes your friends? 🙂
- Should I separate clean clothes from used?
- I’m going to an environment where I would be learning something new, how do I keep that knowledge?
4. Can parents come and visit?
No.
In case of emergencies, please contact LT Vincent or vice versa (and please PRAY HARD THIS IS NOT NEEDED).
