Weekends
The
two weekends away are the main focus of the expedition part of
the Award. The first weekend is a practice expedition where we
hope to iron out any problems. The second weekend is the
assessed expedition which will be conducted over a slightly
different route in the same area
Participants should have brought in the majority of their
kit on the Thursday prior to the expedition and should
just need wash kit, packed lunch and drinks
on Saturday. They should also make sure they are dressed
to cope with the weather which means expecting rain
and chilly evenings. We will provide milk, bread, marge,
tea and coffee to save carrying these difficult items. The
young people should have already brought in a meal for Saturday
evening and some breakfast for Sunday
.
