You will receive a packing list with specific details about our daily themes around June 1st (we "dress up" each night for dinner based on our theme in different costumes and fun attire).
REMINDER: If at all possible and to help with the clutter and safekeeping of campers’ belongings, campers should pack all items in either a wheeled plastic footlocker or a wheeled 30-50 gallon Rubbermaid type container similar to the one pictured below. They are a little harder to find than they used to be. Link to one option with hinges HERE. A smaller one that may be too small for older campers HERE.
Please use this checklist to help you pack and let us know if you have any questions.
What to Bring:
¨ Bible
¨ Pens or Pencils
¨ XL Twin Sheets for Boys
¨ Regular Size Twin Sheets for Girls
¨ Blanket or sleeping bag
¨ Pillow

¨ Sunscreen (spray on is preferred)
¨ Bug spray
¨ Medication in ziplock bags - clearly marked with camper's name (to be turned in to the camp nurse at check in. DO NOT PACK IN SUITCASE)
¨ Plenty of socks and underwear. Remember we will be swimming every day and may want to change – so bring extra!
¨ Tennis shoes
¨ Flip Flops
¨ PJ’s
¨ Old clothes. There are at least 2 activities that you will need OLD clothes that you don’t mind getting messy in. For all other times you won’t ruin your clothes, but you still might not want to bring your best clothes.
¨ Swimsuit and cover up. Swimsuits should fit well, be generally modest and be fitting for athletic activities such as running and sliding on a slip and slide.
¨ Anything you would like to use in the talent show (music, costumes, props etc).
¨ Board Games/Card Games (Just in case it rains)
¨ Water guns
¨ We dress for dinner related to the daily themes. Everyone gets really excited about this. So be creative before you leave home and pack a few things to wear. Even if you think you wouldn’t want to participate in this, go ahead and pack a few things just in case you change your mind. We will let you know what the dress up nights are by June 1st.
What Not to Bring:
· NO electronics
· No cell phones

· Please don’t bring any snacks; they attract critters! Don’t worry; there will be plenty to eat!
