- No mobile phones, electronic games, or other gadgets are allowed.
- It is best to pack a rucksack or soft bag. Suitcases and bin bags are not appropriate. However it is a good idea to use a black bin bag as a “lining” to a rucksack to keep the clothes dry just in case the rucksack gets wet.
- It will be cold at night. Please send you Cub with appropriate sleeping bag and blanket to ensure they are warm.
- Pocket money the Cub Leader will tell you whether this is necessary on a particular camp.
- And no sweets please – see Camp Q & A .
