ROTR - Get ready for tour

How to get ready for tour
Everyone – especially those who have never toured before – should attend at least one rehearsal camp and work an entire weekend in the kitchen. It is valuable if you can work all kitchen shifts for an entire camp weekend, just to get a taste of what it will be like on tour. You’ll experience cooking for 160 (or more) people at one time. You’ll get to know and work alongside experienced volunteers who can show you how Colts volunteers do things. Find an experienced volunteer at a camp and “job shadow” him or her. Ask: Why are you doing that? What’s it like on tour? What’s a free day? What do I need to bring? Is it fun or just hard work?

Anything else?
The single most important thing you should do to get ready for tour is rest. Show up well rested, with a great attitude, and ready to work, and you’ll do just fine.
