We are running a weekend camping and hiking training trip in Warwickshire on the weekend of March 28th– 29th 2015.

This is a trip FOR ALL MEMBERS – BIGS, SMALLS and who ever else wants to take part:

  • All D of E participants: this is a compulsory training weekend for those that are taking part in the expeditions this year and don’t have a prior commitment such as international exchanges or life changing rugby matches.
  • Anyone else who wants to have a go at a short weekend away hiking with kit on their back is welcome to come along.  Smalls – we’re hoping you’ll join us and it will be a great taster of what expeditions are like – we really hope you come along and have a go, it’s a giggle. If you want to bring a buddy or two, that will be fine but you need to check with us first.
  • Young leaders who will be able to assist with the training of the D of E participants and other attendees.

All expedition team members will be expected to work together to complete the route, preparing and eating hot meals along the way. Food will be supplied to Smalls and Bronze team members, Silver and above will need to bring their own food for the weekend.
