I know y'all were looking for this list...

Hooray! It's time to pack for camp. But what do I pack?!

Well, lucky for you, legends who came before you have complied lists upon lists of the most important + essential items you'll need for summer camp. 


Do you need EVERY SINGLE THING on this list? no, probably not. 

But you DO need a majority of it! Reach out to a returning staffer if you have any questions :)
