CAMP CHECKLIST

We've got all your packing questions covered!

CRU Camps are held in many different locations and seasons. A few weeks before the start of your camp, you will receive a camper letter specific for your particular camp which includes exactly what to bring, plus start and finish times and transport details. This will also be posted on the camps page.

To give you a general idea, most camps will at least require the following general items:

  • Shorts & t-shirts
  • Jeans/long pants
  • Long sleeved shirt
  • Jumper
  • Swimming costume
  • Sleeping Bag or Doona
  • Pillow slip
  • Toiletries - soap, shampoo, toothbrush & toothpaste
  • Hat & Sun Screen
  • Water bottle
  • Raincoat
  • Insect Repellent
  • Pyjamas & Underwear
  • Torch
  • Bible and pens
Optional items:
  • Disposable camera
  • Fitted sheet
  • Small amount of money for vending machines or tuck shops

Please make sure everything is clearly marked with the campers name.  The Crusader Union of Australia accepts no responsibility for personal property that you bring to camp.

Please do not bring any expensive items on camp i.e. mobile phones, digital cameras, iPods, laptops etc.

Mobile Phones
It is strongly recommended by Crusaders that campers do not bring mobile phones to camp.  Mobiles are expensive and we cannot take responsibility for such items. We have also noticed that mobiles can be intrusive and can damage the sense of community that we seek to establish on all our camps.  If a camper needs to contact their parents this can always be done by asking the director or a leader.

Drugs and Alcohol
Crusaders do not permit the use of alcohol, non-prescribed drugs or smoking on camps. Anyone found in breach of this can expect to be sent home immediately.
