Clothing List / Packing Guide

The following is for your use as a GUIDE as you pack for camp. It is not a mandatory list. (See Parent’s Manual). Please keep in mind that storage space is limited. DO NOT OVERPACK! Also, because laundry is sent out once per week, make sure your child is prepared with enough clothes for 10 days. (i.e. enough underwear, socks, towels, etc.) All items must fit into ONE LARGE BAG or moderate bag and trunk. We recommend that you use a large duffel bag or hockey bag. If you are having problems keeping with this, please take note of all you have packed to make sure it is essential. Remember, camp is an informal setting. Campers may also bring a backpack or knapsack with them to camp.

Clearly Mark All Items with Your Child’s Name

Items with a    next to them are things children MUST bring. While quantities may vary, it is important that they have them in camp.
Items with a    are optional.
