What You Need for

VERY IMPORTANT!! Only bring with you what you can carry. Pillow, carry-on bag, blanket for the bus (it can sometimes get a little cool), hanging bag (for your Concert Attire), and suitcase. All of these items together are YOUR responsibility to carry. It is important that you do not bring extra bags or other things to carry unless you can carry them yourself. |

Please use good judgment about what to wear. We are a church group. The type of clothing we wear (e.g., short shorts) and what the words say on our clothes (i.e., T-shirts) should be appropriate for such a group of students. Your adult leaders do not want to have to ask you to change clothes, but we will. | |
