EdVenture summer camp is just around the corner, and the excitement is building. To help your child have the best time ever, we've put together a packing guide with everything they'll need during camp.
🎒 Day Pack Must-Haves (for all campers)
Your child's day pack should be light enough to carry comfortably but stocked with the essentials they'll need while exploring, playing, and making new friends.
- Water bottle — Hydration is key. Please send a refillable bottle; we'll have refill stations around camp.
- Hat — A baseball cap or wide-brim hat helps protect from the sun. Forgot one? EdVenture hats are available to purchase.
- Sunscreen — Pack a bottle that’s easy for them to use during the day.
- Bug spray — A must for time spent outdoors.
- Rain jacket — The weather can change quickly here. A lightweight jacket that fits easily into their bag is best.
- Extra socks — Great to have if the first pair gets wet.
- Personal items — Any medications or daily necessities your child needs to carry.
