How to Pack

Boys

• Modest length, loose fitting shorts or pants (our standard is a 5” inseam).

• Shirts with the sides cut out are not acceptable.

• Boxer style swimsuit; must fit appropriately.

Girls

• Modest length, loose fitting shorts or pants (our standard is a 5” inseam).

• Spandex, yoga pants, and leggings are only acceptable if shorts are worn over them.

• Modest, loose fitting tops. Tops should not expose cleavage, midriff, or undergarments and should have straps at least 2" wide. Strapless tops, halter‐tops, and racer backs are not acceptable.

• Modest, one-piece swimsuit with straps. Swimsuits with low-cut tops, high-cut sides, or cutouts are not acceptable. Tankinis are acceptable, but the top and bottom MUST stay together.

General

• Tennis shoes are required for many activities.

• Undergarments must always be covered by outer garments (i.e. no boxer shorts or bra straps showing, including sports bras).

• No clothing should be worn that promotes ideals that could be offensive or that are not consistent with the values of Woodlands (including profanity, alcohol, tobacco, drugs, or other worldly ideals).

• Note: Our goal in developing a dress standard is to be both modest and practical. However, dress standards can often be a source of tension, especially among girl campers. In today’s society, the “less is more” mentality is displayed through low rise jeans and shorts, tight or revealing tops, and short shorts. Please understand that Woodlands is committed to protecting the innocence of your child while they are in our care. With this in mind, we will ask campers who are inappropriately dressed (wearing articles of clothing not consistent with Woodlands’ dress standard) to change. We appreciate your sensitivity to this subject matter, as it is our goal to create an impactful, unforgettable camp environment that is free from distractions.

• Electronics of any kind (cell phones, gaming devices, tablets, etc.)

• Weapons (guns, firearms, or knives)

• Fireworks

• Tobacco, drugs, or alcohol

• Sports equipment (skateboards, bikes, paintball/airsoft guns, etc.)

• Pets

• Body Piercings
