Camp Gauntlet December 2010

Hi all,

Later this month, we will be having Camp Gauntlet 2010. This camp plays a crucial role in the selection of the next batch of PLC members. This announcement is meant for all current Sec 2s.

Details

The duration of the camp will be 4 days and 3 nights starting from 7am 20 Dec. Sec 2s, you will only find out what is in store for you at the start of this camp. You are expected to be at your best both physically and mentally because you will be stretched in both areas. The leaders will be planning this camp carefully in order to give you a challenging experience where you will be stretched to your limits within reasonable bounds. Meanwhile, you will need to make your own preparations well before the start of the camp. Here is a guide for the tasks you have ahead:

You will need to come up with:
- A packing list keeping in mind the duration of the camp
- A food and equipment list
- 2 patrol-level first aid kits
- Your individual Wichita kits
- Navigation tools (2 maps and 2 compasses)

You will need to meet up and plan out all of the above by 16 Dec. At this deadline, you will need to send a copy of the above to the leaders for checking and approval. Your contact person will be Nazri Sir (myself) at noldorinelf2000@hotmail.com.

In addition, there are a few points to take note: we will be meeting with all Gauntlet participants on the 19th in school to do a quick inspection of all the preparations made. Also, do note that we will be confiscating all SMARTPHONES with navigation functions prior to the start of the hike on the 20th and you will be allowed to bring only 2 basic phones so please decide beforehand who these 2 people will be. Your smartphones will only be returned at the end of day 2. These details will suffice for now. If you have any questions, you can contact me via email or fb.

Thanks and good luck,

YIS

A hello from far far away

Dear Scouts,

The exams are around the corner for some of you, and already happening for others. Either way, just wanna wish you guys gd luck! Mug hard and prove to everyone, and especially yourself, what you Truly are capable of (other than snapping my lashings and failing to meet timings).

It seems like ages ago that I have last dropped by for a Scout meeting. Looking at our Troop Blog gave me a clue why. Of course, amongst other things, I have been utterly busy with work. Do know that I miss my time with you Scouts a whole load! of course, not for the tekan. But if you guys haven't realized by now, you are all a special bunch of brothers, friends, frenemies (friendly enemies), makan kakis, come-late-for-school buddies - in essence, a band of Scout friends. Once the meetings resume, I hope to take more opportunity to share with you guys why my own Scouting days were special, and possibly recreate such learning moments so you all can benefit and learn from it as well.

Take care, and good luck. We will see you guys around soon.

Yours-in-Scouting,
Staunch Owl
on behalf of the Ngee Ann Wichita Leaders' Council
