Hours completed: 1.5 hours
Participants: Andy, Samuel, Zhi Yang, Aslam, Yock Siong, Walter

To prepare for the adventure training camp(atc) next month, we learned the basics of pitching a tent today, taught by senior Jia Wei. He taught us the three different sheets of a tent:

Ground sheet- The sheet that is put on the ground in the tent.

Inner sheet- The sheet that forms the shape of the tent.

Outer sheet- The sheet that prevents rain from seeping into the tent.

We were also thought the length of twine we should use, the knots that we tie to the tent sheets and how we should peg.
