To Bring or not to Bring?

Clothing and footwear should be old - it should not matter if it gets wet and dirty.

• A sleeping bag or duvet cover
• Pillowcase
• Non-fitted under-sheet (even when using a sleeping bag)
• Nightwear
• Underwear
• Swimwear (one piece for girls and shorts for boys; April to October only)
• Shorts and leggings / tracksuit bottoms
• T shirts and warm top
• Slippers and indoor shoes
• Outdoor shoes (two pairs, in case the first pair gets wet or muddy... or both!)
• Personal care items
  e.g. soap, flannel, towel, toothpaste and toothbrush, comb/brush, sunscreen, asthma inhaler (if appropriate)
• Waterproof coat
• Notebook, pen and Bible (if you have one)
• Oakes Memory Verse Folder (if given one on a previous camp)
• Pocket money for tuck shop (about £3), bookstall (£2 - £6) and Oakes clothing (T-shirts: £6.50 - £8.50; Hoodies: £12.50 - £17.50)

Please do not bring electronic equipment to The Oakes (i.e. mobiles and mp3 players). If brought, they will be collected and returned at the end of camp.

Camp attenders can be contacted using The Oakes phone number and, if necessary, can phone home from it.

The PDF document ('About The Oakes') linked below also lists this information (as well as other information about camps at The Oakes).
