PACKING LIST:

LABEL EVERYTHING! We recommend iron-on or sewn-in labels for clothing and permanent ink on adhesive tape for

other items. Do not send expensive clothing or belongings...we encourage campers to use what they have on hand,

or check-out second-hand stores and limit any new purchases. Please make sure your camper arrives with enough

clothing to stay warm and dry for the entire session.

Packing... pack belongings in a duffel bag or old suitcase. Avoid using garbage bags, which only get torn allowing

belongings to fall out. And since garbage bags all look the same, someone may go home with the wrong ‘garbage bag’

of belongings. If luggage or sleeping bag is tied, use a strong rope. Make sure all bags are clearly marked with

campers name so that it cannot be mistaken for someone else’s luggage. When packing, make sure that the camper

helps so that s/he knows where everything is and is able to do the task when leaving camp.
