HI all, Let’s get ready to have another unique picnic experience! Important information for all those who are coming for the BGFI Picnic.
• We start from Dadar East at 6:00 am on 11th February. Meeting point is in front of Swami Narayan Temple. Remember we head straight to the Army Base Workshop and they definitely expect us to be punctual. • The bus will stop at Navi Mumbai; Vashi station & Panvel McDonalds. People joining from these stops need to inform us in advance. • People staying far may plan to stay with friends / relatives overnight close by to avoid morning rush. • Carry the right change to pay the picnic cost while boarding in case you have not paid fully. What to bring: Our aim is to show you how to camp. Hence, a few things are ESSENTIAL for every individual to carry so that you have a smile on your face: • Bag: A SMALL sturdy backpack that keeps your hands free to store ALL your belongings. Fold your clothes and arrange them properly to distribute the weight evenly on your back. • An Open Mind: mother nature and the outdoors are unpredictable. Despite best preparations, due to climatic factors our schedule may not go as planned but would work in the best interest of our group. In such an event, spirits mustn’t get dampened but be eager to explore something new. • Hydration: MINIMUM 3 liters of water at all times. • Footwear: Strong and comfortable closed Shoes and an extra pair of socks. • Comfortable clothing: Considering the winter, two T- shirts, 2 pants and a pair of warm clothes should be ideal. Do remember the innerwears! • Personal medication: Any personal medication that you require. We will have a wilderness first aid responder at the camp in case required. • The night will be cold but we will provide a sleeping bag. • Tooth brush, toothpaste, comb, hand sanitizer, mosquito repellant and tissues. An extra water bottle helps in rationing water and keeping it light. • Light: A powerful torch with extra batteries for those who might need it. • Light Food: While some like to sleep at night, some like to stay up talking to people. That's when those packets of chips, biscuits, samosas and munchies come out. We love this part too! Apart from the delicious stuff some people get, conversations spark too and before you know it, it’s sunrise! Let’s prepare well for a great experience! Do message / call in case of any queries.
