Packing List:

Everything you take must fit into one backpack and must weigh 50lbs or less.  **If you need help knowing what kind of backpack to bring, see the gear video here focusing on backpacks. 

Suggested packing list

• All necessary medications with refills
• Sleeping bag and pillow
• Clothes appropriate for outdoor activities and one semi casual outfit (jeans and nice shirt)
• Ministry clothes. **Ladies: skirts, Guys: khaki dress pants and collared shirt
• Water bottle – unbreakable.  Nalgene bottles work best.
• Towel and shower stuff.  Showers are outdoor and cold.  Shower shoes are a must.
• Basic first aid including mosquito spray, medicine for stomach issues, headaches, allergies (including seasonal), bug bites, band-aids, anti-bacterial wipes and ointment, sunscreen.
• Personal hygiene items.
• Headlamp.
• Bible, journal, and pens.
• Spending money for possibly eating out or spending fun time with your team.
• Camera and batteries
• Rain gear
• Lightweight jacket, sweatshirt
• Running shoes

**Ladies: In the past there has been some confusion about the dress code... here's what you need to know about short and skirt length.

 1) If it covers from your waist to your ankles, you can wear it anywhere, any time.

2) If it covers from your waist and touches your knees, you can wear it most places, most of the time.

3) If it covers from your waist to below the middle of your thigh, you can wear it on a rare occasion, not many places. (Why waste the packing space?!)

4) If it shows waist, crack, or anything above your mid-thigh, it can never ever ever be worn.

We'd suggest picking options 1 or 2 :)
