Other than
Flashlight
Sunscreen
Bug repellent
Tent
Food
Sleeping Bag
Hair Shampoo, ect.
Toothbrush, past, ect
change of clothes
pajamas
Anything else?
It’s like a school camping trip
so they have the tents and food provided but what else?
Take your own water, even if the school is bringing some. you don’t wanna be stuck with what’s there. trust me.
Pack more than what you need for clothes. camping can get a little gross and you don’t wanna be stuck wearing something covered in dirt because it’s the only thing you have
Make sure the deoderant you take is spray on. Someone will forget theirs, you don’t wanna share a tent with bo and you don’t wanna share a roll-on.
Hairbrush
Anti itch cream incase of bug bites. Repellants arn’t prefect
Small pillow. more comfortable that way.
take painkillers (just over the counter ones) and a basic first aid kit. If you go off by yourself or somthing you don’t wanna get hurt and then have to wait till you get back for a bandaid and disinfectant or something.
You can get small books which tell you basic first aid procedures from most bookstores these days, that would be useful for you to have, just in case. You can probably pick up a book on posionous snakes and spiders too, but you don’t really need one. just stay away from snakes and spiders.
Checklists.
If they have a place to charge things, I would bring your cellphone and charger (if you have them).
What about a bathing suit? It might be useful for showering as well.
Also, I would bring a roll of toilet paper just for yourself and don’t tell anyone you have it!
You need a pack to put it all in. I would also bring a day pack, I’m sure there will be day hikes.
Bring your own first aid kit, water purifier, fire starter, TP and water bottles.
Also rain gear, head lamp, pillow and maybe snacks.
Have fun!
a book or board game
Essentials

2. Waterproof equipments which include a waterproof tent or waterproof matches and butane lighter, rain gear.
3. Required licenses and permits (for camping, hunting, fishing, etc.)
4. Clothes, especially some extra clothing. You can’t be100% sure about the weather, and the temperature between day and night are different. Wear the suitable clothes and bring some extra clothing.
