Camp North East will run from Friday 29th April through Monday 2nd of May.  We aim to leave Ashbourne at around 5pm on Friday evening, departing from the Community Centre car park. We will be staying at Castle Saunderson International Scout Centre in Co. Cavan.

A basic equipment list for camp is provided here.

In addition scouts should bring:

• Venture Scouts should arrive and depart in full uniform
• A pair of old runners
• A scout knife
• A personal first aid kit
• A cheap white t shirt
• A glass jar
• Warm hat and gloves
• Old clothes for assault course - they will get very mucky and wet

This camp will offer a set of water activities. Ventures wanting to participate in these activities should be able to swim and will need also to bring:

• Bathing suit
• A wetsuit if you have one
• A Cagoul if you have one
• A light fleece if you have one
• A large towel for drying off
• Small plastic bag to put clothes in before session and wet things in afterwards

We would also recommend that Ventures bring a folding camp chair since the benches owned by the group have all been co-opted for the cub camp in Lough Key. Camp chairs can be purchased in Argos for €10 if you don't already have one.

We will meet on Friday evening to buy food for camp. Ventures are asked to contribute €20 each to cover the cost of food and transportation for this event, your camp fees have already been paid in full.
