Ultimate Summer Sleepaway Camp Packing List
Let's take care of first things first, before piling up essential everything-you-can-think-of items into your child's duffle bag, always refer to the camp's packing list and guidelines for what you need to know. Avoid overpacking, making it more likely that your child will return home with as much of their own gear as possible. When packing new clothing for camp, consider giving the items a quick wash before packing, and keep name labels or a permanent marker on hand to label everything with names or initials.
Some camps will provide laundry service (labeled clothing helps), which means campers will be able to pack a little less clothing. If the camp information packet is unclear, always feel free to call for clarification. Here are some of the basic items to pack up for sleepaway camp-
