Transportation:

Buses will leave from the WWSHS parking lot promptly at 11:00 AM on Sunday, August 8. Classics members should be at school by 10:45AM. NOTE: Students should plan to bring a sack lunch to eat on the bus on the way to camp (or eat at home before arriving at WWS) – the first meal served at camp will be dinner. Students will be bused from the Army Lake Camp on Tuesday, August 4, leaving at 5 PM. They should arrive back at WWSHS around 7 PM.
 
Packing List:

1. Bedding (sheets, blankets, sleeping bags, etc.)
2. Pillow
3. Towel(s) (for the lake and the shower)
4. Swimsuit –
NOTE: ANY GIRL WEARING A TWO-PIECE BATHING SUIT MUST HAVE A SHIRT ON OVER IT! Of course, a safer option is to just wear a one-piece suit, but if that's not available, then plan on wearing a shirt when you swim. This is a rule of the campground, and we must abide by it if we would like to use their waterfront.
5. 1-2 sets of casual clothes (shorts, shirts, sandals, etc.)
6. 2-3 sets of exercise clothes (shorts, t-shirts, gym shoes, etc.)
7. Warm clothing for cool evenings (jacket, sweatshirt, jeans, etc.)
8. Pajamas
9. Sunscreen/Bug Spray
10. Snacks (as desired)
11. Personal Toiletries
12. Alarm clock
13. Watch
14. Personal Electronics As Desired (iPod, cell phone, camera, etc.)
15. Money – not necessary, but recommended if you wish to purchase concessions. Individual food items range from about $.50 – $2.00. (See “a note about dining” below.)

In addition to the above items, each student needs to bring with them a personal item of paramount importance (i.e. prized possession) packaged in a plain brown box or wrapped in plain brown wrapping paper (an inside-out grocery bag will work for wrapping if other brown wrapping paper is not available). This item should be something that you treasure, and it will not be available to you until nearly the end of the retreat (so plan accordingly!). When packaging your item, think along the lines of something that you might receive or ship via UPS…
 
A note about dining at camp:

In the past, students have requested that food be available to them outside of the camp’s dining times. Students may opt to bring snacks/drinks with them from home, but this will not be allowed into the dining room. Outside food will need to be kept in cabins, and there is not refrigeration available. Additionally, the camp will open its snack shop during all breaks. The snack shop serves items hamburgers, hot dogs, corn dogs, nachos, pretzels, ice cream, and beverages with costs that range from about .50-$2.00 per item.
