Mandurina - District Camp

Our annual District camp is held usually in the school holidays. Which one depends on the leaders availability and fitting it in around the various camps and activities. In pre-Jamboree years it is a four night camp.

We camp together in Jamboree style Troop camp sites and using the sort of gear that will be used at the Jamboree, to familiarise Scouts with what to expect at Jamboree.

So each Mandurina Troop consists of approx. 6 Patrols with 4 Leaders.

In winter and even in September, your Scout needs to be prepared for cold and wet conditions.

In addition to our standard gear list (see Standing camp list), there are a couple of things to make sure you bring:

• a decent sleeping bag*

• an inner sheet for your sleeping bag

• thermals

• a beanie, gloves and scarf

• a waterproof coat

• plenty of clothes to layer up - thermals/T-shirts/fleece tops/warm coat
