Patrol check in was at 9:00. We were given our site and our forms were checked. At 10:45 a.m. we assembled and got our uniforms ready for the opening ceremony. The opening ceremony started at 11:00 a.m. and it was a very short ceremony and we were welcomed by the Chief Scout Michael J Shinnock.
| Uniform. |
After our uniform inspection, we began our site build. Daniel tied all our tripods/quads together while we put up the tents and Jordan perfected them. We then started building our gadgets. We broke off and put up the flysheet. Our A.P.L Conor C and Neil McK started to put up the table once the flysheet was finished. Callum and Daniel put the dresser together. After Jordan finished perfecting the tents and Connor G finished the grubber, they put up the bins and wash rack up. Connor G then did the boundaries with Ollie Drugan.
| Site Progress. |
When site was up, our Head Chef Connor Grace and his wing man Callum O'Donovan started the test meal which was chicken fajitas with vegetables. Callum cut the vegetable while Connor cut the chicken on the chopping board on our dresser. Daniel lit the fire for the cooking.
This has been Conor C and Callum doing the log book, we now have to leave to get ready for the sub-camp sketches and camp-fire which should be great fun.
After that we'll have supper and then we'll go into bed for lights out.
