The next batch due for the National Youth Service
Corps (NYSC) – Batch C 2014 – will be going for
camping from November 4, 2014. What and what
should you take to Camp? Do you really need most
of the things you've packed into your big leather
box already? Here's a checklist of what we think an
'Otondoh' like you is like to need...
Camp Items
1 Documents and Photocopies
2 Call-up letter
3 Statement of Result/transcript
4 First degree certificates
5 School ID card
6 Passport photographs
Comments
You won't be allowed into camp premises without
any of them. Go there with about 10 passports & 5
document photocopies each
Toiletries
Essentials
7 Toothbrush & Toothpaste
8 Bath soap & Sponge
9 Detergent & Bar Soap
10 Toilet Paper
11 Towel
Others
12 Sanitary Pads & Tampons
13 Shower Caps
14 Bleach
15 Disinfectants
16 Buckets & Bailer
17 Body Cream & Lotion
Its ok to buy buckets and non-essentials at the
camp.
Clothing Items
18 White T-shirts
19 White Shorts
20 Whites tennis shoes
21 White socks
22 Underwear
23 Bed sheets
24 Perfumes/ body spray
25 Rubber slippers/flip flops
26 Combs and hair needs
27 Makeup & accessories
* You will be provided with 2 pairs of white T-shirts
and shorts in camp but you can take up to 2 pairs
along.
* Colored panties will be too conspicuous under the
white tops and bottoms.
* You can take a 2 - 3 sets of casual wears/mufti for
Sunday and camp fire night.
* 1 pair of shoe and socks is okay. It is good to have
a white rubber shoe that is easy to clean (sold at
camp also)
Other Recommended Items
28 Torch lights
29 Mosquito nets/mosquito repellant
30 Food flasks, cups, drinking flasks & cutlery
31 Cloth hangers
32 Wrist watch
33 Padlocks and keys
34 Waist pouch
35 Handkerchiefs/face towels/Kleenex
36 Pegs/clips
37 Get a cheap watch. Every one uses a waist purse.
Its your camp bestie. Most of these items can be
easily bought in the camp so don't worry. If you cant
get them before travelling.
Optional First Aid Items
38 Methylated spirits/ rubbing alcohol
39 Band aids/plasters
40 Robb
41 Bandages
42 Cotton wool
43 Anti-purging pills (flagyl, tetracycline etc.)
44 Anti-malaria pills
45 Inhaler (for those who are asthmatic)
These aren't necessary except you have something
to treat or known allergies
Miscellaneous
46 Camera & batteries
47 Writing pads and stationary
48 Novels/Books
49 Pillow
50 Games
51 Mp3/ iPod
52 Eye pads for sleeping & ear plugs
53 Surge protectors / extensions
54 Glue sticks & stapler
If you have an internet-enabled camera phone, do
take it along. Camp life can be very boring without
one. You will like to take pictures and share with
your friends. You only need to be very vigilant and
protective of your things. If you feel you need a
bulletproof vest or helmet, please carry it. You know
what we mean, don't you?
55. MONEY, MONEY, AND MORE MONEY.
* Never, ever, ever run out of it. Bring as much as
you can afford.
* Mirrors and forks are known to be contraband
items in camp
* Prices of items apart from fast consumer goods
(Credit, Gala, Indomie etc) are usually higher than
those outside so it is advisable you buy the things
you can before going into camp.
PACK AS LIGHT AS YOU CAN AND MAKE SURE YOUR
BOX IS AS THEFT-PROOF AS POSSIBLE.
