Run up to Kairos…
• Get your youth group organised! Please remember that you will be responsible for your young people while they are on site and so you must have all emergency contacts and relevant medical information for each young person in your group.
• Book your ticket! All young people and members of your team are required to complete the Kairos Booking Form.
• Ensure you have read all the relevant site & safety information as well as the group leaders responsibilities found below.
• Download our handy kit list below and begin the packing!
Setting up at Kairos…
• Kairos camp opens at 1pm on the Friday. Upon arrival you must check in and receive your wristband from reception.
• When setting up your tents, please ensure there is a 3 meter gap between each tent. If this is not the case, you will be asked to relocate.
• Although cars are allowed on site for unpacking and setup, they should be moved to the main car park as soon as possible (no later than 7:30pm). As this is an active site with lots of young people, please drive carefully following all road signs, and keep your speed to no more than 5mph.
Whilst at Kairos…
• Showers and toilets are located in the main building. The event hall and café are also located here.
• Hot meals are provided at mealtimes between 8am and 11pm. Some groups opt to cater for themselves, please ensure you communicate with your youth group what you have decided and if they need to book a catered or a non-catered ticket.
• Catered tickets include 3 main meals per day with a choice of options available. We aim to provide a good selection of home cooked favourites for dinner each night, as well as the classics like burgers and chips. Catered tickets do not include things like chocolate, crisps and sweets, however these are available to purchase throughout the weekend.
• Young people are NOT to leave the site without first being pre-approved by you, their group leader, and being signed out at reception. Young people are the responsibility of you as their group leader for the duration of the weekend.
• If any of your young people need to take any medication while at Kairos then you should speak to parents/guardians about the best way to look after this. Kairos does have designated on-site first aiders but please remember that young people/group leaders will be responsible for looking after any prescription medication. If you have any questions please contact us.
Pack down…
• The main event will be finished by 12pm on the Monday. Parents/guardians should start to collect their young person/s from site at this time. Vehicles will not be permitted on the camping field until this time. The site should be cleared by 2pm. If this is going to be a problem then please do let us know.
