What to pack!?

This campout is in November, so prepare for cold weather! Remember jackets, hats, gloves, and a warm sleeping bag. This is a car camping trip, so you are not limited on gear, BUT it all has to fit in our vehicles, so do not overpack.

Sleeping gear

Personal cooking gear

Personal food

Cold weather clothes (plus extra set in case you get wet)

You will be given a 2-gallon ziplock to store a spare set of clothes during the canoe trip. If you endeavor to keep dry, you won’t need them.

Food

Friday

Dinner - either eat on the road or have something simple to prepare on site.

Dessert - Troop Patrols will provide dessert for the whole group.

Lunch: Pack a cold lunch in a ziplock (or other water proof container) and water for eating either in the canoe or on the shore during the canoe trip.
