15. What to Bring- DON’Ts
Phones are great for some photos throughout the camp, however taking it abseiling or canoeing probably isn’t a very good idea. The Camp and school are not liable if they are lost, damaged, or stolen. Plus there are no outlets to charge them.
Hair straighteners, hair dryers, make- up.
