Packing for Camp
- MARK YOUR CHILD'S NAME ON ALL ITEMS OF CLOTHING AND EQUIPMENT!
- Pack everything your child takes in one suitcase or stuff bag and one sleeping bag or bed roll
- Weather at camp can vary greatly. Items listed on the "What to take to camp" form below that are marked with an asterisk (*) are necessary year round unless otherwise noted.
- New clothing should not be purchased unless necessary. Experience has shown that comfortable, old clothing is more satisfactory!
- Beds and mattresses are provided in modern heated facilities, along with restrooms and showers.
- Stamps are not available at the site. Stamped, pre-addressed postcards or envelopes are a good idea.
DO NOT BRING: money, candy, gum, food of any kind, knives, matches, aerosol sprays (ie, hair spray, deodorant), scented lotions, iPods, cell phones, hair dryers, curling irons, makeup, or perfume. Outdoor school recommends not bringing a watch or jewelry of any kind. If brought to camp, they will not be held responsible for lost or damaged items.
