Gosford District Scout Camp

General notes: 
Details of the activity - 
Scouts will be operating in patrols for camping, cooking and activities.
Each Scout Unit will arrange marquee style tents for their scout to use for the weekend; however, it will be up to the scouts if they sleep in the marquee or bring their own tent. 
Scouts are to arrive in patrols from 8:00am on Saturday in FULL scout uniform. Scouts will then have 2 hrs to set up their own campsites (dining shelter, kitchen and tents)
A more detailed plan for the weekend will be distributed to Patrol Leaders (PLs) and Scout Leaders, including a patrol equipment list. 

The activities around Myuna Bay Scout Camp will be spaced throughout the site with patrols walking between bases. Some activities will be land base, whilst others may involve Scouts swimming or becoming wet. All activities will be reviewed and subjected to a risk assessment so they can be operated in the safest possible manner. 

A full personal gear list is attached. Please note scouts should bring a broad brimmed hat and collared shirt for activities. Whilst in the water Scouts will need to wear board shorts, sun shirt and enclosed water shoes. Please ensure that clothes are brought to camp suitable for the prevailing weather (e.g. it could get cold at night, and we also may experience rain). 
Scouts should bring mosquito repellent, hand sanitizer and sunscreen.
