Organisers: Jack Goodeve, Robyn Surcombe

We need Shepherds for Freshers 2026 - will you be one??

It will be on the first weekend of March. So, the 6th through to the 7th.

We want people who have a bit of tramping know how, you don't need to have been super involved in the club. We want you if you’re friendly, responsible and able to dance like no one is looking!!

 

You'll be paired up with another shepherd, and together you'll need to:

  • Look out for the 10 or so sheep in your flock throughout the tramp - get them going in the mornings, check on how they're doing during the day, check that they are there at each of the campsites, etc.
  • Buy ingredients and prepare two breakfasts and one dinner for the flock. Meals prepared must suite the dietary requirements of flock sheep.
  • Attend the 'shepherd briefing' meeting. (Time and date will be determine closer to freshers).
  • Generally, facilitate good vibes - have lots of chats, help your flock to get to know each other.

 

Shepherds on freshers will have discounted ticket prices.

TBD
