Camping Checklist

Print Friendly

Hi Guys, here is a handy checklist of things you might want to think about bringing for our campers.
Credit: This is totally modded from SOLAR‘s camping checklist, and if you ever end up on the East Coast they’re a fun game to play.

Most Important (lol!):

[__] Yourself :)
[__] Newbie ;)

Clothing & Garb:

[__] Costuming (at least two outfits and make sure they are weather smart)
On weekends where we will have VERY cold, wet weather… Bring layers, you can always remove layers. If you like to wear skirts/kilts, wear pants underneath when the temperature drops.
[__]Extra Costuming, it just helps to be over-prepared.
[__] Real world clothing (If you have to leave site, try to do so in civvies)
[__] Makeup (don’t forget ears, horns, spirit gum/remover)
[__] Pouches, packs and bags
[__] Weapons and armor
[__] Belts, quivers
[__] Comfortable footwear (for monstering/NPCing)
[__] Extra socks and underwear. Twice as many socks and underwear as you think you need. Really.
[__] White headband
[__] Orange headband (for if you partake of adult beverages)
[__] Spell/Poison packets
[__] Sports bra or jock strap if you need the support
[__] Cloak or cape
[__] Tabards
[__] Gloves or Gauntlets
[__] An extra pair of boots or shoes, in case your main pair gets too wet.
[__] Boffer weapons.
[__] NPC blacks that are WARM.

[__] Cocoa
[__] Coffee
[__] Soda
[__] Energy bars
[__] Trail mix
[__] Nuts and fruit (Don’t let game be an excuse for not eating right)

    Medications! If you’re prone to soreness or other unpleaseantness, please think to bring what you need with you!

    People are usually willing to help if you need, but bear your own allergies/tolerances and such in mind when packing.
