What to wear:
Campers should come with typical athletic gear. Shorts, T-shirts, and running shoes and sunscreen. Some campers bring athletic tape or gloves for their hands, but this is not required. Swimming suits are not necessary. Campers should not come to camp with only sandals as many aspects of the camp occur on land and require running shoes.
