Please follow this list as you prepare your son for his summer at camp. Experience has taught us that having enough (but not too many) of certain essential items can make a significant difference between a comfortable summer and one spent scrounging and wanting.
Your son's name should be on EVERY item that he brings with him. Whether you hope to have it return home with him or not, the important thing is that he still has it after the first few days of camp. Better to have at least his full last name written out, since you never know how many campers will have the same initials... Regular sharpies and permanent makers tend to bleed and fade, so use a laundry marking pen, or labels, or a clothing stamp. You can find great tools for putting his name on his things here: www.everythingsummercamp.com/clothing-stamp.
Changes for the current summer are highlighted in yellow.We have increased the number of basic items like socks, t-shirts, underwear, and shorts because we've outsourced our laundry operation this summer and it could lead to slightly longer stretches between washings.
Camp is FULL of tools and toys for campers – kayaks, sailboats, ropes courses, etc. Some items that we're used to playing with as part of our everyday lives are things that detract from the Kabeyun experience. Please help us keep his attention on camp by leaving the following at home:
