2013 Unit Annual Camp , 15-16 March 2013~

Behold, our Unit's most awaited annual event of the year, Unit Annual Camp 2013 ! whooo~
For this year, it was a 2D1N event, with the campfire held on the 2nd night(: At the same time, the Sec3s' Cadet Leaders' Training Camp 2013 was also held concurrently, from 15-17 March.

To kick-start the camp, our OC Unit, A/ASP(NPCC) Tan Jin Sha gave his opening speech and declared the camp, OPEN. (Of course there were no cutting of ribbons etc. but you get the idea).
Next, we headed for our dragon-boating session! Everyone had a whale of a time and got quite drenched too after attacking each other with water(:
After returning back to school, the whole unit was split into 8 groups, with each group having around the same number of sec1s, 2s and 3s. It was dinner time and what's a camp without survival cooking? They all had to cook instant noodles for themselves(:
After dinner, everyone brought their belongings into their respective bunks and had team-bonding games within their own group, so that the juniors and seniors could get to know each other better and forge new friendships with one another(:
It was time to wash up and sleep, so everyone lights out!

Waking up bright and early next morning, the whole Unit had PT together with lots of stretching and running, of course(: To replenish the lost energy, it was time to have breakfast~ Later on, it was fun and games all the way~
As the day was ending, it was time for dinner and next, the most anticipated highlight of the camp, it was time for campfire! It was organised by the Sec3s and was declared open by the lighting of the campfire by our OC Unit(: Many of our ex-CLs came for the campfire as well to visit the Unit and to get high during campfire too(: Everyone had a great time singing along to the campfire songs and got really hyped up(: The performances performed by the different groups got everyone really high too(:

Sadly, all good things must come to an end. Aww... The whole camp was declared close by our OC Unit as well Even though it was rather sad that the camp has ended so fast, but I hope everyone had an enriching and fun experience during the camp, made lots of new friends and bonded with your seniors/juniors. This is the last major event organised by our 49th CL committee, and we hope every single one of you had an awesome time(:

To end off this post, I'll let the photos taken during camp to do the talking(:

As for the Sec2s, the revised on their marching drills and saluting on the march(front). March, march, march~ They also learnt pacing drills and how to salute on the march to the left and right(:
Since NAPFA test was approaching, the Sec1s and 2s had Physical Training to train up! They did lots of stretches and got their hearts pumping real quick with jumping jacks, squats, pumpings and running~
Lastly, the Sec3 CLTs conducted their lessons for Advanced Footdrill 1, Advanced Footdrill 2 and PT within their own squad, where they get a chance to hone their leadership skills and MOI skills(: hopefully they became much more confident after conducting their lessons and be great leaders soon, maybe during our next 2D1N  event? *hints*
