Getting your NYSC call-up letter is exciting, but preparing for camp goes beyond packing clothes and buying toiletries.

Before leaving home, make sure you have these essentials in place:

📌 Your documents: Print your call-up letter, green card and other required documents. Keep them safely in a waterproof folder.

📌 Your finances: Have some money available for transportation, feeding and unexpected expenses.

📌 Personal essentials: Pack comfortable clothes, toiletries, medications you need and other basic items allowed in camp.

📌 Travel plans: Confirm your camp location, transport arrangements and how long your journey will take.

📌 Family and emergency contacts: Keep important phone numbers accessible and let someone at home know your travel plans.

Most importantly, don't wait until the last minute before getting everything ready. A little preparation can make your journey to camp much easier.

To all prospective corps members preparing for camp, take your time, get organised and travel safely.
