KIWANIS YOUTH CAMP 2007

I went for Paintball with me dad on sunday, n took d opportunity to send him showers upon showers of questions regarding the upcoming KIWANIS YOUTH CAMP 2007, tentatively held on 13-16, but apparently the date's gonna be changed AGAIN soon, so stay tuned aite? right, i managed to find out that the organizers (my dad and his team) are looking at a camp in raub, pahang. among the activities lined up for the 4 days are:

white water rafting
high ropes
flying fox (longest in malaysia, spans over a HUGE lake)
raft building (this time we're gonna go down a RIVER not a stagnant POND like kyc06)
obstacle course
abseiling
campfire

with only 4 days of camp, there's a very tight schedule. therefore, to stuff in all these great great activities, indoor lessons are kept to a minimum. overall, i think we'll be having only about 3 or 4 indoor lessons during the whole camp. that's a great thing aite!! i mean, indoor is okay but not the whole camp like kyc06 lah. sure, that's where we learn stuff in theory and all, but then again squeezing 200 hormone driven teenagers in a small hall for too long is seriously NOT A GOOD IDEA. so this time around, we'll be having a camp. a REAL camp, the REAL DEAL. be there or be square! be there and be round like me! haha... well, not reli la, coz lotsa outdoor mah.

note: white water rafting and building raft are TWO SEPERATE ACTIVITIES. white water rafting is where they give u a ready made raft, usually those inflated ones if im not mistaken, and ure supposed to steer ur raft down rapids and mini waterfalls and try not to capsize along the way. in building rafts, we are given materials like tyres, wood, and ropes to MAKE our own rafts and THEN sail down a river. for this one, u better hope u make ur raft properly. haha... last year in a stagnant pond pun boleh pecah, so... be careful!

and there's talk about a word game that's something to do with eating nasi lemak with ayam goreng tambah telur goreng and teh o ais limau or something lidat.


all this and more! for more information, log on to this website every fortnight or so and hopefully i get more 'bocor' from my dad. haha... our beloved ms. Heidi Olivia Tan has been confirmed to be the lead facilitator again this time around. there'll be the usual pre-selected student facilitators as well.

until more leaks, here's a kyc fanatic signing off! pro utilitate hominum et fide et labore.
