Jenny asks…
What should I pack for a 1 week camping trip? I suck at writing lists help AHHH ?
I know obviously tee shirts and shorts, bathing suits and other stuff but I always suck at making lists. Any help??
If it helps much, go on google maps and look up lake George NY sattelite view so you can see it. It’s really beautiful
And also these are like campsites. Our campground thing is rigt next to a park pretty much on a busy road, except the park is quiet and ao are the campsites. Im at the lake George battleground campsites and our whole family is on 1 little road haha. Cars drive down and me and my cousins are like gtfo!!! Lol does anyone have ideas??
Also, entertaining things for the park (Sorry no bikes mine is broken ;[) like frisbess basketballs. I’m already bringing my skateboard but I just need to be specific. ![]()
@Mitch
You’re probably right xD

Martin answers:
You will need:
Obviously bring 8 pairs of tee shirts and shorts
A hoodie incase it gets chilly
Sneakers and flip flops/Sandals
Sunglasses
A pair of jeans incase its kinda cold
PAJAMA TIME ;D
Some kind of ball to play with
rollerblades are fun ![]()
Your skateboard
CANDYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

and if my favorite places to go are nyc florida and the beach am i gonna it??

Martin answers:
Well since you didn’t mention a specific place you were going here’s my general list of what i take. It can be adapted to wherever you are going so not all of these things will apply to any particular site.
Tent
backpack (you will be able to fit almost everything in one as opposed to suitcases; needs to be at least 4800 cubic inches)
a backpacking stove
eating utensils (such as metal pots and pans and cutlery this will make for easy cleanup)
as much food as necessary for the trip
clothing for the season
a Global Positioning System (get one in the range of about 300 to 400. They are good and some can float on water)
lots of water
a means of communication ( such as a cell phone)
a map and compass (if you re not careful the batteries in the gps will run out)
toiletries ( such as a toothbrush)
a shovel to dig your latrine
a flashlight
a watch
Extra Batteries
rain gear for everyone in your group
highly reflective blanket
fire starters
wood (if you’re going to a campsite; If not you can just collect some in the woods)
matches or another way of starting a fire
first aid kit
games
extra batteries for flash lights and gps among other things
extra can of cooking fuel ( ie propane or butane)
clothing that fits the season
games for entertainment
let someone know where you re going and when you re expecting to be back so they know when to send for help if necessary
AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST TAKE ANOTHER RESPONSIBLE ADULT. YOU MUST HAVE A BUDDY BECAUSE YOU NEED TO HAVE SOMEONE TO TAKE CARE OF YOU AND/OR YOUR INJURIES !!!! YOU’RE CHILDREN WILL NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO
