Pre-Camp Briefing #1

Hello my fellow PKs!

We have a little over 5 weeks till camp! Are you guys excited yet? Well, we are! Over the next 5 weeks, we will try to do some pre-camp briefing so that we will be able to have a smooth camp!

So here is Pre-Camp Briefing Numero Uno! Are ya ready kids?

Pre-Camp Briefing #1

Location : Bukit Gambang Resort City, Kuantan (Pahang) [MAP]
Date : 15th – 17th December 2011
Pick up time and place : 8.30am (Bible College Malaysia Car Park, Jalan Gasing)

NOTE : We advise all those taking the bus service provided from BCM to be there latest by 8am for a final head count. The bus leaves 8.30am sharp and late comers will have to find their own way to Kuantan. If you ticked “YES” in your need transport form, then this is for YOU!

This year, we will be having approximately 154 PKs and MKs representing 5 different nations joining us! God has been good and so far, all our planning has gone smoothly. The camp site is BGRC, and from what I hear, it is a GREAT place to have our camp.

As there will be other camps going on at the same time, it will be crucial that we follow all the rules stated by the organizers and hotel management. There will be a briefing after arriving at the camp site.

Here are some pictures of the camp site:

The accommodation is in the form of apartments. We are arranging 6 to a 2-bedroom apartment (3 in a room). Room mate assignments are done by age so don’t worry about getting a room mate too old or too young.

Boy campers are allowed to visit girl campers at their apartments and vice versa. However, these visits are limited to only the living room area and hall curtains must be drawn! Room doors must also be shut and apartments must be devoid of visitors after 10pm unless a valid reason exists (i.e Prayer). We will take any violation towards this rule very seriously and NO benefit of doubt will be given if any camper is caught in the room of another of the opposite sex. We will call your parents and bar you from joining future PK events. So please take this rule seriously!

 

The highlight of the Resort City is its Water Park. However due to time constraint, we will not be organizing any activities at the water park. You are however allowed to go to the water park in your own free time (which is sadly, is only from 3pm – 6pm on Friday the 16th.) You must sign up for this extra-camp site activity on Thursday during registration and no last minute requests will be approved. This is for your safety’s sake.

The tickets cost somewhere between RM19 to RM30 depending on peak season. If you are below 18, you MUST have adult supervision (18 years old and above) to enter the Water Park.

We do have our own games planned for those who do not wish to go to the water park and this will take place at the hall we will be using.

That is all for our 1st Pre-Camp Briefing! Watch out for our second. We will tell you what to bring (i.e watch, identification, some cash etc.) and what NOT to bring (i.e kitchen sink, fridge, milk bottles, your mummy etc.)

Here are some extra photos for your viewing pleasure!
