 To avoid singing the "Post Camp Clothes Blues", you should know something right from the start: Don't buy all new clothes for camp! Camp is fun, but fun can be dirty sometimes. Clothes WILL get dirty at camp and your child will probably return with a few stained clothes. All clothing should be marked with the camper's name (either using permanent marker or labels). This will help insure that most of what you send will return. If clothes are not marked, they may go to "clothes heaven". We have prepared a packing list that you can use as a guideline to pack for camp. This is just a suggested list, not mandatory. You may want to add a few things, leave out others based on how long your stay is, butthis list is a good place to start.

What should my camper not bring to camp?
Your child should not bring any kind of valuables to camp such as: expensive watches, rings, radios,cameras, etc. The camp cannot be responsible for these items if they get lost or misplaced. Cell Phones, Pagers, iPods, PSP's, Walkman Radios, CD Players, and DS should not be brought to camp. We are trying to preserve a wholesome, rustic, outdoor atmosphere here at camp. These items seem to only detract from this setting. Should the camper come with one of these items, they will be kept in the office and returned when the camper departs. Alcohol and illegal drugs are not permitted at camp. If a camper is suspected of having alcohol or illegal drugs in their possession, they will be asked if we may search their belongings. If approved by the camper, we will search the belongings with the camper present. The camp reserves the right to search a camper's possessions even if they do not agree to the search. If alcohol or illegal drugs are found in a camper's possession, their parents will be contacted, and appropriate action will be taken. Campers should not bring personal sports equipment. If they do, they will be doing so at their own risk. Campers are allowed to bring cars to camp if given permission by director. Car will remain parked during camp and keys will be held by director until the end of camp session. Campers are not allowed to bring animals/pets from home. Weapons are not allowed at camp. Please understand that each of these policies are in place for the well-being of all campers and staff. If you have questions, please contact our office. 225-261-2089
