Mk, whats the ultimate summer camp check list?! Im 13 and im going to a summer camp in like 3 weeks and i dont want to forget anything!! help!!
Answer
Here is my standard list. I went to summer camp for ten years as a kid, and then I became a camp counselor. So here is what I recommend (assuming you are a girl), some of these things may or may not work depending on what kind of facilities your camp has. This list is made for a more rustic camp:
Enough clothes to last you the entire time plus a few extras (half the time if there is laundry service):
- T-shirts
- Shorts
- Pajamas
Double the amount you think you will need of:
- Socks
- Underwear
Also:
- Sturdy athletic shoes that will be good for hiking
- Extra pair of junk shoes
- Flip flops for the pool area and in the shower
- A couple hoodies for night time
- Jeans and boots with a 1" heel if you will be going horseback riding
- A bandana: Keeps hair out of face and covers it when there is no time for a shower
- Two bathing suits (one to use while the other is drying out)
- Poncho/raincoat (a good poncho is what i recommend...covers the most area and you can put your backpack underneath it)
- Laundry bag to put all your dirty clothes in
Toiletries (pack in a ziploc or plastic-lined cosmetic bag to carry back and forth to shower areas):
-Shampoo and Conditioner
-Soap/Body Wash
-Toothbrush/Toothpaste
-Facewash
-Comb and brush
-Hair ties
-Deodorant
-Sunscreen
-Bugspray
-Shaving gear (if needed)
-Tampons/pads (if needed)
-Extra glasses/contacts (if needed)
-Sunglasses
-Medication (must be turned in to camp nurse)
Gear:
-Sleeping bag
-Pillow
-Extra blanket
-Twin fitted sheet
-Tarp or groundcloth for sleepouts
-Lantern for tent/cabin
-Flashlight for night hikes
-Extra batteries
-Backpack for carrying everything around camp during the day
-Crate or box to use as a nightstand (can pack things inside it)
-At least 2 bath towels (one to use while the other is drying)
-2 Hand towels
-Clothesline and clothespins (can tie to a tree or inside cabin to dry towels, wet bathing suits, etc.)
-Extra ziploc bags (to store wet towels and bathing suits while walking around camp)
-Water bottle
-Mess kit (plate, bowl, utensils) for cook-outs
-Mini hand-held fan
Fun Stuff (optional, but are good to have):
-playing cards
-camera! disposables are always best for camp, but make sure you put your name on it
-a few costumey items (wig, silly socks, funny hat etc.) for fun days or color war at camp
-Stationery, including envelopes, paper, pens, stickers, stamps
-Address book: put all your family and friends' addresses in beforehand so you can write to them while at camp, then you can put all your new camp friends addresses in there when you leave
-CD/MP3 player: depending on your camp, these may or may not be allowed. good to listen to during quiet time
-A few books or magazines
-A few bottles of nail polish to do with your friends during downtime
-Friendship bracelet string
-Glow sticks (can be found at any camping store or craft store)
-White t-shirt for tie-dying
And one last tip - make sure you put your name on everything!
Hope this helps, and have fun at camp!!
