St. John Ambutane Camp

Members of the Gisborne and Ruatoria divisions of the St. John Ambulance Association attended a weekend camp at Morere recently.

During the camp, those present were able to extend their knowledge of field craft in more rugged country by a training exercise staged by the association.

A cup for competition between the two divisions was also contested, being won by Ruatoria.
