Since weather conditions can vary widely, we recommend layering clothing rather than bringing one-purpose clothing. All clothing should be marked with student’s name. This is an active outdoor program and valuable clothing or jewelry is highly discouraged. Fashion statements are superfluous to this trip, and grass stains and mud are very possible.
