This is the suggested camp list for your ATC.
Here are some points suggested

2. Revise on your knots and lashings, especially TENT-GUY LINE
3. Revise on ALL the songs taught
4. Any queries, please ask the seniors or officers!
5. Almost all of the things above, can be bought in the army market! Ask around there! (:
Like what Paul Sir had said, PLEASE DO NOT BE THE CADET, STANDING THERE HOLDING THE VERTICAL POLE!
HELP PITCH THE TENT!
MOST IMPORTANTLY: Do not be afraid and seriously have fun, excel yourself!
