Overnight

Hey guys here are the details for Overnight Camp as stated in the briefing earlier:
Duration: 19 Feb (1530 hrs) - 20 Feb (1600 hrs)
Location: Gym Hall Atrium, Raffles Institution
Venue: Meet at Gym Hall Atrium in full scout u (for the Sec 1s, PE kit)
Sec 3s please report earlier, preferably right after school to get the flagstaff up

Inspection
There will be inspection during the camp. Inspection, for those of you who don't know, is a way of checking contraband items at the start of the camp (for eg. antisocial items such as cards, ipods, handphones etc.) Another reason for inspection can also be for airing your items but that is not the purpose of inspection for this camp. For this inspection, a much longer time will be given but this inspection will focus more on quality than speed, unlike previous years. Either another sec 3 or I will be sending the template for inspection soon. Please remember to standardise the inspection format among the whole level, or at least, among the patrol. This time, your bags will need to be water-proofed. A way to water-proof your bag would be to use zip lock bags, or just put everything into a garbage bag and dump it into your bag.

Parent's Session
On Day 2, from 3 p.m. to 4 p.m. (which is your dismissal time) will be Parent's Session, where your parents (if they are coming) will meet 01 and be introduced to 01 and answer any queries that your parents might have. There will also be a sharing of experiences (for eg. the Cambodia CIP trip)

Cooking Race
There will be cooking race during Overnight Camp. Cooking Race, for those of you who don't know yet, is a competition where we cook food given a set budget/ingredients and it will be judged by 4 criteria:
- Presentation/Creativity 25%
- Sufficiency 25%
- Taste 30%
- Hygiene 20%
(Please take note of the hygiene portion! Even if our food tastes nice, is sufficient for the patrol and is creative and nice-looking, if we poison the J1s we still will not get first place.)[And you'll get pumped]
The ingredients for the Cooking Race will be bought during the camp itself and no ingredients are to be brought to the camp. The patrols are required to bring their own condiments though. Those who do have the condiments would you please kindly bring them :) Food without condiments is like facebook without mousehunt. Bad analogy, but you get the point (hopefully).

Extra stuff to take note:
- Please label your scarf and beret (IMPORTANT) and belongings that you don't want to lose.
- Please make sure that you have your full scout uniform (see above). This is very important as the scout uniform is a uniform that is meant to be worn without the loss of any part of the uniform. Wearing the scout uniform with even one part missing, even the socks/shoes, is disrespecting the scout uniform. So please check that you have your full scout uniform. If you don't, then get the missing parts ASAP.
