Tips for packing for sleep away camp
Organizing and packing for sleep away camp can be STRESS FREE if you follow these simple steps once you have your master list from camp.
- Use two bags for the most efficient organization of your items: One for sheets, towels, linens, pillows and sports equipment, shoes, and toiletries.
- The second bag is for all clothing. I like to use XL or jumbo sized Ziploc bags for smaller items like socks and underwear. Everything will be contained and not get lost in your bag.
- Make sure to label each Ziploc, leave a nice note for the counselor to keep them when they pack your child up at the end of the summer. You’ll get your bag back in some semblance of order- Fingers crossed!
- Pack like with like, and pack all in plastic garbage bags so everything stays together within the bag.
