If you need to make contact in an emergency during camp please contact-

 

Home Contact – Niall Collier Badgers Cub Leader

Home 0118 9760793

Mobile 07990984743

 

If anything happens on camp that we need to make you aware of then we will contact Niall who will then make contact with you. 

 

Please do not contact the camp office or any of the camp Leaders directly.  All communication must go through Niall.

 

Please ensure that you are able to arrange collection of your Scout at any point during the camp.  This will only be required if there is an emergency or if it is unsafe for your Scout to be on camp.

 

Kit List

Attached is the kit list.  As it is Late October it is highly likely to be cold and wet.  With this in mind please ensure your Scout has appropriate clothing such as a waterproof coat and trousers along with warm clothes.  They must also have a suitable sleeping bag and blanket as it can get quite cold at night sleeping in a tent.  Sleeping with a woolly hat on will also help keep them warm.  If they do not bring the correct gear we reserve the right to send your Scout home.  It can be very dangerous without it.

 

Uniform

Scouts must wear their 1^st Finchampstead Scarf for camp.  They do not need to bring their full uniform as it is only a very short camp.

 

Halloween

As it is Halloween on the Saturday night we will be having a Halloween Party.  On the kit list you will notice that your Scout must also bring a Halloween outfit for the Saturday night.  The more scary it is …the better the party will be!

 

Help Required

If you are able to help either on the Friday afternoon or Sunday morning to set up and/or dismantle the camp it will be very much appreciated.  Help will also be required to load the equipment into the van on Thursday evening and unload again Sunday afternoon. The more helpers there are the easier it is.    Please e-mail me if you can help.

 

If you have any queries please let me know.

 

Regards
