What To Bring
What To Bring
Camp Baker is a very active place, and the majority of our activities take place outside. So being properly prepared every day is essential. Each day campers should:
- Be dressed in appropriate clothing for play and weather, including sneakers and a hat.
- Please come to camp wearing your swimsuit each day and bring a change of clothes to keep at camp.
- It’s ok to bring sandals for swimming, but kids must wear sneakers during the rest of the day.
- Apply sunscreen SPF 30 or higher each morning, and bring your own sunscreen so we can reapply.
- Apply insect repellent with DEET each morning, and bring your own to reapply. Parents are strongly advised to check for ticks every day.
- Bring a backpack to hold their items, kids will bring homework and daily reports home in their backpacks.
- A small, cooler-type lunch box filled with a morning and afternoon snack, and a healthy, hearty lunch.
- Refillable water bottle with ice and cold water.
- Swimsuit and towel every day, and goggles and swim cap, if desired.
- Bring medication in the prescription bottle. Staff will store medication in a locked, secure box and administer at the times provided in the medication order.
