Kandalore Packing List

Only a few days left until we leave for Kandalore! At the moment, it looks like we might have a couple of rainy days while we're there, so students will need to make sure that they bring proper clothing and gear for rainy weather. Here's the list that Kandalore sent to us to send home (it was at the front of the package that came home with the paperwork on the first day of school):

• 1 packed lunch (we will be stopping at McDonald's on the way to Kandalore, so if you'd rather send your child with $10 for lunch, that's an option)
• 1 jacket
• 1 fleece jacket or warm sweater
• 2 pairs of pants (jeans not recommended)
• 2 pairs of shorts
• 2 long sleeve shirts
• 3 t-shirts
• underwear (more than one pair!)
• 4-6 pairs of socks (wool or fleece are warmest)
• 1 hat for sun/rain
• toque/mitts for cool evenings
• 2 pairs of shoes (appropriate shoes for running around)
• 1 bathing suit (the one that "covers the most")
• 1 towel
• 1 sleeping bag
• 1 pillow
• 1 water bottle
• 1 rain jacket (and pants, if possible)
• umbrella
• sun screen/bug spray
• flashlight
• toiletries
• camera, watch, sunglasses are optional

This is by no means a "must-have" list.  If you feel that your child needs more or fewer of the items listed above, please include them.  Students will be responsible for toting all of their items, including sleeping bags and pillows, so no more than one bag to pack all other items is recommended.

Just a reminder, as well, of items that Kandalore recommends students DON'T bring:

• junk food - the camp is a PEANUT-FREE ENVIRONMENT
• valuables (e.g., iPod, video games, cell phone, etc)
• knives, lighters, etc.

We leave at around 9:30 on Monday, so normal arrival time is fine for students.  We'll bring them back by 3:30 on Wednesday afternoon. 
Can't wait!  See you then!
