Hi Parents!
I can't believe it is already time to start getting ready for fifth grade camp. I have put together a checklist of suggested items that are helpful to have at camp. Please review these lists with students and help them prepare for this exciting week!
Students will be given their camp groups and schedule the Friday before camp. Let me know if you have any questions or concerns after reading this list.
What to wear: (Label Everything)
- · Dress for the weather, dress in layers, the mornings are typically cool and afternoons warm
- · Put sunscreen and bug spray on BEFORE leaving your house. (No bug spray is allowed at camp and it gets buggy in the woods.)
- · A hat if you want
- · Sneakers (You need these to go in the woods and play sports, wear them every day)
- · Sweatshirt (It can get cold in the woods)
What to bring: (Label everything)
- · Your lunch if you are bringing (Snack is provided to all students everyday, Lunch is provided to all students on Friday)
- · Water bottle
- · Your bathing suit every day (If you have swimming first block you should come wearing your swimsuit, a one piece suit is not required, but is recommended as students will wear them on the zip line.)
- · Towel (everyday)
- · Sandals/Flip Flops for water activities (Wear sneakers and change at camp)
- · Your schedule (I will give it to you Monday morning and you will keep it for the rest of the week.)
- · Plastic bag for your wet suit and towel
- · Sunscreen (No sprays please)
- · A large bag to put your back pack in if it is raining (All belongings are kept outside and will get wet if it rain)
- A raincoat or poncho in case it rains. Keep one in your bag every day.
- An extra sweatshirt in case one gets wet.
Things to
remember:
- · You will travel to school the way you normally do and switch to a camp bus at Crisafulli. After you get off the camp bus find Ms. Moores to check in and get your badge. At the end of the day turn your badge back in to Ms. Moores. (This is how we do attendance so it is important)
- · Show respect to all teachers, peers, and parent volunteers at ALL TIMES. There is a three-strike rule at camp.
- · Use water for drinking only; it is against camp rules to squirt water bottles at each other.
- · You will travel to activities with your group. You must stay with your group and adult leader at all times.
- · Get to know students from other schools who are traveling with you.
- · If interested, be sure to sign up for the talent show, which is on Friday of camp week. You will get sign-up week soon. All interested students must sign up the week before camp.
- · Raincoat (Everyday!)
