Things to Think About

We have outlined below a rough guide to the kit you will need for Fresher's Camp. However please also consider the following:

• North East and Yorkshire Fresher's Camp is being held in Yorkshire in October so it might be quite chilly and/or wet, so please make sure that you bring some warm things and working waterproofs to wear!
• It is best to pack your kit in a rucksack or sports bag that you can carry on your back. Suitcases are not suitable for tents, and even less suitable for muddy fields!
• Please label all items with a name to aid us in reuniting any lost property!
• If you don't have anything on the list, make sure to talk to your club about this and they should be able to help! 
• The list below is not exhaustive, so please use your own knowledge and experience to pack accordingly.
