NYAA Campcraft

3rd December 2007
Hours completed: 4hrs
Participants: Yi Wei, Azhri

In preparation for the upcoming campcraft competion in February next year, this campcraft training was orgainised. In the competition, 9 people are required to pitch a shelter, a gadget and a flagstaff.

First we were briefed on the information about the competion regarding the materials and the time we had. Then we were told that the sec 3s, us would be doing the flagstaff. So we gathered our materials and went to practise. We had decided to practice the tying of the round lash to tie 2 poles together.

We took 2 3m poles and 2 3.5m manila ham. Then we started tying, with our CI to time us. We practiced throughout the whole session, as we received tips from our CI and we managed to reach a timing of 2.38 mins to tie both poles together.
