The Zombie Apocalypse Survival Camp

So, the whole of our area has been infested with zombies apart from, lucky for us, Bentley Marsh Coppice. Are you tough enough to survive overnight in a bivouac you have built, eating food you have cooked on a wood fire and waiting for the Baschurch Guides to clear out the flesh eating monsters? We will meet up at Bentley Marsh Coppice on Friday 7th July at 6.30 pm and leave at 10.00 am on Saturday 8th July. You need to book by Eventbrite at the link; https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/the-zombie-apocalypse-camp-tickets-666218687027 Booking will finish on Wednesday July 5th as we need exact numbers for food. The camp is free and we will provide food, materials for shelter building and fire making. We will also be using bushcraft knives and saws.

ANYONE WAITING TO BE INVESTED WILL BE INVESTED UNDERGROUND. The car park opposite the cave is small so please drop off and leave, we won't have enough room for people to wait.
