Kit list: 2-night camps
- Please pack kit into a hold-all style bag – much easier than rucksacks to get things into & out of. It’s good to use a black bin bag as a “lining” to keep the clothes dry just in case the bag gets wet.
- Please involve your Cub with the packing so they know where everything is.
- Please make sure everything is named. Old clothes that can get muddy and/or damaged are best.
- It will be cold at night. Please send your Cub with an appropriate sleeping bag and blanket to ensure they are warm.
- Please only send cakes to share. No other food/sweets – or mice will nibble holes into the tents!
- No mobile phones, electronic games, or other gadgets are allowed.
- No money please.
- All medicines must be in a labelled bag with instructions and given to the designated leader on arrival.
