Girls need to bring their own morning tea and lunch, as required, depending on what sessions they are attending.

Each girl will need a copy of the Camp Out Booklet, and for the Camp Permit girls the Figure It Out section as well. The training is intended for the girl being assessed and they don't need to bring their team.

Closing date for registrations is 13 July, please specify which sessions the girls want to attend, no late registrations will be accepted.

In order to maintain ratio's we will need unit leaders or parents to stay. We will also need permission and health forms for the emergency contact details.
