6th April
All the items required for the Over Night were taken to the school from 6.00 a.m to 8.00 a.m on 6th April. After the items were taken, the Tent pitching started from 8.00 a.m and ended at 11.00 a.m. For the tent pitching only 4 members from each patrol was allowed. There is a total of 6 patrols in SLSG, with 2 troops separating them. Fish troop includes Marlin, Lobster and Dolphin patrol. Bird troop includes Eagle, Falcon and Robin. When it was 11.00 a.m. all the scouts were sent to home. only to come back again at 2.00 p.m, when all the scouts will be present to officially start the activities.At 2.00 p.m. all the scouts were present in Lh. A.E.C, and it was time again to start the work of Camp site and to pitch the tents, as most of the tents were not finished yet. The work of the Admin site was also done during this period. Up to 4.00 p.m Camp site work was done, before anything else Evening Tea was prepared and they had Evening Tea in only about 15 minutes. This was a real success. As Cooking is inspected, Evening Tea from each patrol for one person needs to be brought to the Admin Tent. And after the Evening Tea all the scouts were brought to the playground as from 4.00 p.m to 6.00 p.m was scheduled "Game" in this Over Night. When the "Game" was over, it was Prayer time, so after re freshening themselves the scouts went to prayer. After the Prayer, Scouts were to prepare Dinner. And in between this, another Prayer came, so they went to prayer. At 8.30 p.m it was time for Dinner and just like before, Dinner was brought to Admin tent to be inspected.
After Dinner, at 9.00 p.m. Opening Ceremony was to be held, so the Scouts got ready for the event in the 30 minutes from 8.30 p.m to 9.00 p.m. For the Opening Ceremony the Principal, senior management and all of the teachers were invited. Also senior Girl Guides were invited too. It is so sad that only 3 of the teachers came, but still the others didn't let us down as all the Guides and the Principal and her Deputy came. After the Opening Ceremony ended at about 09.45, the Scouts were given a narrow 15 minutes to get ready for the Camp Fire. The Camp Fire started at 10.00 p.m, and the talents from each patrol was shown. And between this items, 3 "BoduBeru" songs, which was given from the all scouts involved, were played. And also some pretty good and funny tricks from Rover Scouts were also presented. This epic show ended at about 11.30 p.m. and all the scouts was to re fresh themselves to get ready to sleep, and in the mean time C.O.H meeting was held. All the lights were switched off at 12.00 a.m sharp and all the scouts went to sleep except the 2 members from each patrol on duty outside the tent.
