Here are some guidelines for completing the Leaders Reviews forms which can be really hard to complete sometimes especially since after camp you just want to rest.

Please use these as guidelines only – don’t copy and paste them into all your leaders reviews because that is not fair to the leader that has given up their time and efforts to attend camp and wants well thought out review of their performance.
