What should my camper bring?
- BIBLE
- Sleeping bag (you can also bring sheets for a twin, but we highly recommend a sleeping bag for campouts!)
- For retreats, twin sheets and a blanket are perfectly fine, but a sleeping bag works too
- Pillow (extra blanket if you want)
- Towel, Washcloth, Shampoo, Conditioner, Body Wash
- Toothbrush, toothpaste
- Hairbrush
- SUNSCREEN (because we are at a higher elevation, we are closer to the sun, and even though it is cooler, the sun is intense)
- Appropriate summer clothes ( NO spaghetti straps, crop tops, booty shorts, baggy pants, bring a light jacket and pants for nights. Bring clothes you don’t mind if they get dirty or accidentally ruined.)
- Closed-toed shoes, sandals only for the shower.
- Water shoes for the lake (we recommend shoes with a back)
- Swimsuit
- For girls, a one-piece or modest two-piece (full coverage)
- For boys, boxer-style swim trunks
- A bag for dirty clothes/wet towels/swimsuits
- WATER BOTTLE!! (Dehydration is common here because of our lower humidity)
- Chapstick
- Flashlight
- Medications (these will be turned into the camp nurse and be distributed at the appropriate time)
- Money for the canteen ($25 is usually enough)
- Do not bring cell phones, tablets, laptops, headphones or any other electrical devices. There is no service anyway 🙂
- No extra food/drink unless needed for medical reasons (which will then be stored in the camp’s kitchen and given when necessary)
- No weapons of any kind, including pocket knives
