\nI was not the only one to catch a stomach bug here at camp. And my symptoms were mild; others have it much worse and are being sent home. The medical team (yes, we have a whole team) have been to the nearest hospital and returned with lots of hand sanitizer, and split up the loos and hand-washing stations by scout group to minimize the risk of the infection spreading. <\/p>\n

The supply manager was among those, so this evening I was hastily promoted from assistant to supply manager. I now have a whole tent full of stuff to manage. I have no real clue about what’s in here or what I’m really supposed to do with it all.<\/p>\n
