I am getting ready to send two kids to sleepaway camp for the first time, and I am following the suggested clothing list. The problem I have, however, is the frequency of laundry. The boys camp does laundry every week with a turnaround of two days. The girls camp does it every two weeks (twice during a one month session) awith a turnaround of a few days. That means that to be sure my daughter has clean clothes, I have to send 18 different shirts, pairs of socks, etc… I would be thrilled to send less, but don’t see how to if they clothes will not be cleaned more often.
I guess I’ll find out this summer, but I hope the cubby space is sufficient for what the camps suggest they bring. If not, I’ll have to consider what people here are suggesting – the under bed container.
