Weekend Camp

NO mobile phones or electronic devices.

Campsites may be muddy and wet so please ensure you have good quality boots or trainers so your feet won’t be wet. Clothes may get muddy, smokey and wet so bring old clothes and don’t bring anything of value or that you’d be upset to lose or break.

Pack yourself so you know what you have in your bag and how to get it all back in the bag at the end of the weekend!

ALL medication must be handed in to the Camp Leader with written instructions and discussed before camp.

Mark all personal items with your name. We always have items left at the end of camp.
