What to Bring On Camp: A Packing List for Campers

It's always exciting to prepare to come on camp with the Australian Camps Association's People Outdoors program. You're going to meet up with friends (and make new ones) and you'll experience some fun adventure activities too!

To make sure you bring appropriate clothing to participate in all the fun activities on camp, we've made this packing list to make sure you've got everything you need when you join your next People Outdoors camp - there is even checkboxes to make sure you've packed them back in your bag at the end of camp too! 

You can view the packing checklist here (pdf) or download below.
