This year the Boss Camp was held at Portsmouth, next to the sea-side at an army training centre. The weather was HOT! I got sunburnt at the camp! However, the camp was a good fun and met loads of chardikala people!

Warrant Officer Makand SinghOn the last night of the camp there was a Rainsbayee Kirtan where campers did Kirtan. It was so uplifting to see everyone sing along and be absorbed in the Kirtan. Even though there was a Rainsbayee Kirtan (which went on til 2am or so) the campers still woke up on time for the morning diwaan, and many campers attended the Amrit-vela diwaan. :)
Abi Kaur from Manchester doing Kirtan.
Campers from the Midlands doing Kirtan. Listening to Bhaji doing Kirtan it felt as if the Kirtani, Bhai Manpreet Singh Kanpur wale was singing. Really boosted kirtan!!
Daas doing kirtan.
This bhaji was chardikala!
Last day of camp - Guru Ji leaving the camp site in full Chardikala!
