Survivor 08

Survivor 08 (10th Petaling Scout Camp)...4th December till 8th December 2008...but I went on the 6th till the 8th due to some other events that clash with the camp time...

I missed many activities of the camp...


On the 3rd day of Survivor 08, 6th December 2008, I arrived in the afternoon....everyone were out...they were having an activity named The Survival...something like Amazing Race...where you go around the city(Petaling Jaya) to perform tasks and more...

This is one of the tasks of The Survival...should be checking prices of some items I guess...I did not attend the activity, so I do not know much...this type of activity is to train scouts to know the way around - able to go around cities and learn to ask for directions and more(socialise)...

After The Survival...participants were gathered at school...
After that, the participants cooked dinner and fed themselves well....to train scouts to be more independent - cook for themselves...
Crime Night activity....CSI(Crime Scene Investigation)....

There was a murder case going on....participants need to search for clues to solve the mystery of the crime...
Participants questioning crime suspects....
The detectives(participants) were not able to solve the mystery...and a flashback to the actual time of the murder case was demonstrated by the seniors...
OBH activity....

Where participants were being awaken at night and blindfolded and lead to an unknown place... and sit at a spot for a certain period of time(usually 1 hour+)...this is to train the patience of scouts...
Seniors on duty to keep participants awake - participants are not allowed to sleep during the activity...
After the OBH activity, I went to sleep...

The next morning, I went to my uncle's wedding...and missed many activities...

I came back at night...where the BBQ night(A tradition activity for 10th Petaling Scouts) was almost over...but they left some food for me =)
After that, they had patrol presentation... there were 4 patrols....a patrol is a group of participants in a team...patrols have leader,assistant leader,quartermaster(incharge of equipments and more),timekeeper and more...

Patrol presentation is where each patrol have to prepare songs, claps, cheers, logo, flags, and more...to present their patrol to everyone...to let others know about their patrol..(like introduction)..this activity is able to train scouts to be more creative and improve their public speaking...
Drama act...

Participants have to come up with a drama act to present....to improve creativity and performing skills....
The next day - last day....

Time to pack up...
After that, Footdrill competition...

Footdrill competition a.k.a(also known as) marching competition...where participants have to present their marching skills and get graded by judges(seniors)....
Patrol leaders have to march out and salute(hormat) to the judge(senior) and report(laporkan diri) information(patrol leader's name, amount of patrol members, and being ready and set to perform the task set by the judge) to the judge...
Participants marching...patrol by patrol...

Marching is able to train patience, discipline, synchronisation, and stamina....
Troop leader activity...

Patrol leader or assistant patrol leader of each patrol is said to be acted as a troop leader of a troop....

Seniors will question the acting-troop leader on how he/she would do for a troop...and being questioned with lots of no-answer type of questions..

This is to train participants to be able to control their emotions, tolerance(resist scoldings), think rationally, and also patience....
The "fierce" seniors.... =P
Group photo of organizers and participants...some were not there(went back or doing some other things)....

Quek : I am superman !

Lingesh : Yo...I am the boss (look at my body guards) =P
