Troop 28 Campout Packing List

Label everything with your name. The Troop has tents, so you do not need to buy one. A headlamp and hiking boots are the two purchases most worth making. Trip-specific gear (helmet, skis, life jacket) will be listed on the sign-up sheet.

Check items off as you pack. The checks stay in this browser until you clear them. Summer camp uses the Troop 28 Makajawan Packing List.
