Packing List

Download the complete Packing List

Your child will need a sack lunch for the trip to camp, for starters. Your child will be engaging in a lot of activities while at UCLA UniCamp, warranting plenty of clothes in itself. However, the average temperature can range from 40 degrees at night to over 90 degrees during the day. With swimming, recreation period, hiking and such, kids can go through clean clothes quickly, as you know. Please limit your child to two pieces of luggage. The following is a list of items and recommended clothing (included in the count is what your child will wear to camp):

7 pair of underwear
7 pair of socks
3-4 pair durable pants
6 T-shirts
1 light jacket
1 heavy jacket
2 sweatshirts/sweaters
1 swimming suit (one piece)
1 pair CLOSED TOE shoes
1 pajama
2 towels
Toiletries (in a small bag)
Unscented soap
Toothbrush and toothpaste
Comb or brush
Shampoo
Unscented deodorant
Sunscreen
Unscented (unflavored) Chap Stick
Water bottle
Sunglasses
Flashlight
WARM SLEEPING BAG and pillow
 


Medications
If child has medications, they must be brought in their original prescription packaging! We cannot administer medication without the child's name on the original packaging from the doctor.

Sacklunch
Every child also needs to bring a sack lunch for the first day of camp. The first drop-off day, the children will be on a bus for a couple of hours on their way to camp- so they will need a lunch to eat until they arrive at the campsite for dinner.

…all packed in a soft “duffel” bag that your child can easily carry and handle. Your child will need a warm sleeping bag as well. We have found that two small bags are much easier to handle for campers than if all the belongings are packed together in one big bag. Please don’t send your child’s belongings packed in a trash bag, large trunk or hard suitcase. These are difficult to pack in the luggage trailer and difficult for your camper to carry. We recommend that the camper’s name is clearly marked on any item you want returned if lost, particularly on the outside of their luggage.

What did you say NOT to bring to camp?
The following items are not needed at camp and cause enough difficulty that we have prohibited campers from having them for a long list of reasons:

Weapons (of any type)
Fireworks (or anything of the type)
Alcohol
Drugs
Controlled substances
Toys (small stuffed friends are OK)
Any video type games
Walkmans/Radios/CD players
Matches or a lighter
Tobacco or similar products
Marking pens
Pets
Money

…Any of these items can earn your child an early trip home at your expense! Your help is needed here. Know what your child is bringing to camp!
