Write-up by one of our Sec3s -
So what does PLTC mean to me and to the other Secondary 3 guides? I am certain that the whole cohort of Secondary 3 guides and scouts all feel that PLTC is an once-in-a-lifetime experience. It is a camp you do not get to go for, or in other words, it is a rare and challenging game you usually do not get to play. We came together to achieve more points in this game.
I feel that the Secondary 3 guides and scouts had also learnt a lot throughout the camp. We went for the camp with a mind to grow, to laugh, to share and to dare. We left with hearts full of joy, happy tears, and some grieving. During PLC and the lectures, we learnt that time management, communication, sense of urgency and many other factors will affect our performance in the entire camp. Of course, I feel that attitude is the most important of all. Without a positive attitude, we will not have been able to survive through the camp and at the same time gain life experience.
PLTC is a camp which allows year 3s to lead a patrol. Everyone has a chance and I believe it is an opportunity to let you stretch your limits. “Know Yourself Better” this year is definitely one activity that allows us to broaden our limits and as the name suggests, it allows us to know ourselves better.
As Dunmanians, we learnt to care, to serve and to lead. In this camp as trainees, we learnt to think, to act and to fight with high spirits. Edwin H. Friedman once said,” Leadership can be thought of as a capacity to define oneself to others in a way that clarifies and expands a vision of the future.” To lead with vision is what I realize a leader should be doing. Yet, everyone is a leader in a way or another.
Love Guides :)
