PACKING LIST FOR Y OVERNIGHT CAMPS
Our summers offer beautiful, sunny days with occasional rain showers and evenings that range from cool and crisp to hot and humid. With that in mind, this list has been created for your camper's comfort and preparedness. We suggest that you send old clothes, etc, as some items may be lost or damaged. Campers will spend the majority of the day outside, getting dirty, sweaty, muddy, and wet. Be sure to label everything with your child's name. Unscented toilet articles are recommended as the bugs at camp really enjoy scented soaps and shampoos. Please read our prohibited gear list carefully. Campers who bring any listed items may be asked to surrender them to the Camp Staff and may face disciplinary action. Parents may retrieve confiscated items at check-out. All medications, prescription or non-prescription, must be submitted to the Camp Nurse at check-in.
*This list is for one week of camp, please double for two-week camp.​
