PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING BEFORE PACKING YOUR CAMPER
Label all of your child’s belongings.
Campers should bring a labeled laundry bag.
- Please pack “play clothes” and avoid sending new clothing to camp. Pack enough for 10 days. Laundry will be done at least twice during camp.
- Upon arrival at Beam, campers will unpack their clothing into their personal shelves. All other belongings will be kept in a camp-provided bin that will fit under their bed.
- Whenever possible please pack your campers belongings in soft luggage that can be stored folded or flat until the end of camp.
- Campers should bring a receptacle to carry toiletries and flip flops/sandals to facilitate their trips to and from the toilet/shower house.
- We encourage campers to enjoy music during rest time and while reading before sleep. However, watching of videos on personal electronic devices is not permitted at camp. Please consider explaining this policy to your camper if you plan to pack such a hybrid device.
