Any acts or possession of the prohibited items may warrant a camper being sent home:<\/p>\n You may want to supplement these items as you feel appropriate.\u00a0 Laundry is done about once a week for each camper. For example, we encourage you to bring an extra pair of old sneakers if you have them but it is not required.<\/p>\n Remember, each boy is responsible for his own gear<\/strong>, so you may not want to send up any clothes that you expect him to return with in good condition, if at all! Berwick tries to emphasize the importance of honesty and respect for other\u2019s property but cannot be held responsible for loss or damage to a boy\u2019s possessions. We recommend purchasing less costly clothing from your local thrift store as clothes may become heavily soiled or ruined during the summer.<\/p>\n All items should be labeled with the boy\u2019s name, including footlockers, backpacks, etc.<\/p>\n Another good idea is to line the inside of these items with plastic bags so that items will not get too wet for the boat ride to the island.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Required: |
