Top 5 Things You Need To Bring To Camp
SheKnows

Everyone loves camp. It's a time to leave behind your everyday life for at least a week and enjoy yourself. Camp provides you with a variety of activities that everyone is sure to love, from swimming to hiking. While being at camp is fun, packing for camp is not. But don't fear, I'm here to help your packing go quicker so you can get to the good stuff! Here is a list of the top five things you need to bring to camp!

1. Appropriate Attire

Clothes are important anywhere you go, so it is important to bring the right type of clothing with you. But remember, this is camp so you shouldn't over-pack (too much anyway).

2. Recreational Activity Equipment

Whether you love volleyball, fishing, or hiking you need the proper equipment! If you plan on going fishing and forget your rod what kind of fun would you be having? I'll tell you what kind of fun, no fun at all.

3. Skin Protections

From sunscreen to bug spray, keeping your skin protected is vital to having a good time! Nobody wants to be the person who is the color of a tomato, stuck inside avoiding any further contact with the sun. And if you're itchy due to bug bites, you won't be able to focus on anything other than that annoying itch!

4. Hygiene Products

DO NOT FORGET THESE! These are essential to your everyday life for obvious reasons, so why wouldn't they be important on a camping trip?


5. Snacks

I don't know about you, but I know I always have a much better time doing things knowing my favorite snacks are going to be involved. So always bring good snacks with you, because even if the rest of your trip doesn't go as planned, at least you'll have good food!


There you have it, the top five things you need to bring with you to camp! Now go have fun at camp.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
