Coconut Shell Cave!

Yahooooooo! Yup...thats where we're heading to! Gua Tempurung, here we come!!! E-rangers, please take note. This trip is especially for you guys and gals out there...We will be going for a caving expedition on the 1st of May (labour Day) to Gua Tempurung, Perak. Due to the fact that we will have to leave early in the morning...and I mean EARLY...the commanders have decided that we will all spend the night before the trip in church. Yup...on 30th April (this sun), those going for this trip will spend the night in church, before leaving for the cave early next morning.
Details of the trip are as following:

30th April - 1st May 2006
Gua Tempurung, Perak
Cost: RM30 per person (not inclusive of meals)
* Food/meals are strictly sdn. bhd. *

Be in church on the 30th of April (sun night) by 9.00pm. We'll spend the night eating, laughing, whacking up someone, mamaking, gaming, snoring, sleeping, doin all the crazy stuff...and then we'll leave next morning by 7.00am!!! So rangers, please be prepared! Its gonna be an adventure!

Some of you might be asking...what should I bring? Do I need to bring a tent? What about the equipment needed? Well, tentatively the guys will be sleeping in MPR2 while the girls get MPR1. No, you wont be sleeping in tents. Whats wrong with you ppl! You'll definitely need your sleeping bags cauz sleeping on the floor can be quite memorable.

Please bring along a good pair of shoes/sandals, change of clothes. Dont forget the undies...Bring along a cap too! Those who love eating rubbish, bring along sufficient junkfood to last you a year, water and extra cash for mamak sessions, bfast, lunch, dinner, etc.
MOST IMPORTANTLY, Torchlight with extra batteries....VVIP! Make sure its water-proof too!
How to be sure that your torchlight is water proof? Take a shower with it. If it still works after bathing, its good. And please do not bring those super huge torchlights thats the size of your head. A simple, portable, bright one will do. For those of you who fail to bring your torchlight, let me assure you that its going to be a regrettable moment in your life...:)

Here's some of the pics of Gua Tempurung to get your imaginations going wild...


Patrol guides and assistant guides, you are to confirm with me the names of your patrol members who will be attending this trip by Saturday, 29th April. Remember, its a first come first serve basis. Only 25 places available!

Rangers, be prepared to get wet and dirty! Its gonna be great....Seeee ya!
