This list has recently been updated to include:
- A bedroll (if you have one already- we'll have plenty to share or you can buy them cheap at the Warehouse).
- Light but durable plate, bowl, mug and cutlery for our campout at Anchorage. Again, if this is an issue just let us know and we will find some extra.

LABEL EVERYTHING!!!! :)

Please provide a small container of biscuits, pretzels, rice crackers, or similar to share for supper, morning and afternoon teas. This must be in a throw away container with ingredients listed on top. No Nuts Please!! 

The above list is the basic requirements. Clothing should be warm and adequate. As many activities will be outdoors, ‘best’ clothing is not desirable. Serviceable footwear is imperative. All gear is to be clearly named and packed in a kitbag, pack or small suitcase which should be labelled.

NO RADIOS, CELL PHONES, MONEY, KNIVES, I PODS, OR ELECTRONIC GAMES ARE PERMITTED.

No sweets, packets of chips or fizzy drink.
