What to Bring

Sleeping

• You will be sleeping in air conditioned rooms. For some campers, rooms may not get as cold as your default home temperature. You may want to bring a small battery powered fan and extra batteries if you want to be sure you are cool enough at night.

Summer

• T-Shirts – Bring several that you don’t mind getting dirty. Please do not bring shirts with statements, logos, graphics, or pictures of companies, bands, or other entities that represent ideals that are in conflict with Christian values.
• Shorts – Bring athletic/hiking shorts that you don’t mind getting dirty. Do not bring short shorts. You will be wearing harnesses, which will rub your skin if your shorts aren’t long enough.
• Shoes – Hiking/athletic shoes are necessary. Do not bring new shoes. Bring a back-up pair. If it rains, we’ll keep playing. Closed- toed shoes are required. Do not bring flipflops for your main shoe, but do bring them for around the dorm room and showers.

• Jeans / Long Pants – For adventure and for staying warm in the mornings/evenings.
