This expedition is open to Gold participants who meet the following criteria:

• You have completed expedition training at Gold level AND HAVE COMPLETED YOUR BRONZE AWARD COMPLETELY and wish to be assessed.
• You wish to complete Gold expedition training AND HAVE COMPLETED YOUR BRONZE AWARD COMPLETELY.

It is a D of E requirement that you may only attend expeditions one level above an uncompleted Award. This means that you can do Silver expeditions without completing your Bronze Award, but cannot do Gold expeditions. The only way round this is either to complete your Bronze Award or to do Gold Direct. Gold Direct requires two training expeditions prior to assessment so by far the simplest option is to complete your Bronze Award.

The dates for this expedition are 21.08.2010 - 25.08.2010.

Training costs £140. Assessment costs £50. The difference in cost covers the expense of having MLs with the training groups for the first two days of navigation.

Bring a completed consent form and cheque, payable to QEGS, for the appropriate amount to Mr McWilliam ASAP to confirm your place. ALL PAPERWORK, ROUTES AND PLANNING MUST BE COMPLETED BY EASTER.
