Summer Camp Survival Tip #3- Dress for Success
When it comes to packing clothes for camp it is good to try and anticipate a few things. 1 What type of activities are going on? 2. What is the weather SUPPOSED to be like? 3. How long will you be away? Why are each of these questions important?
1. Activities- I went to a camp where every day the kids had a “water time.” This consisted of a variety of activities but there were two things you could count on. You might get messy, and you would get wet. If you know something like this will happen, jeans might not be your best option. And a white t-shirt may not be good either. Make sure and bring clothes you can get wet and possibly messy in. Also a second towel might be a good idea too.
This is just one example of activities. You may be going hiking, so boots and jeans are called for, or boating and will need water shoes. Find out what type of activities will be going on so you can bring the clothes you need.
2. Weather. You can never predict the weather but you can be prepared for it. Umbrellas, extra jeans, shirts and towels for rainy days. Sunscreen, hats, shorts and light colors for sunny days. Just be prepared for anything.
3. Length- Bring enough clothes for atleast 1-2 days more than you plan on. Odds are you will unexpectedly get thrown in the pool, or play a messy game, or fall in the mud or something. Bringing extra sets of clothes is not a bad idea.
One more tip- One counselor told me the way she survives is by brining an extra shirt and pair of socks for each day. That way, half way through even though you might not be able to shower and change, you can atleast get a fresh shirt and a clean pair of socks for the evening. Not a bad thought.
