Summer School & Camp Wish List

2008 Summer School & Camp Wish List.

IMPORTANT:

Please see what items you can collect and leave a comment on the blog post claiming the item by number and description so we can see who is bringing what. We will be updating the list once a week by removing what people have pledged to bring with them to the DR or what we have enough of.

All of these items must be hand-carried to the Dominican Republic, so keep in mind how much room you are going to have in your luggage, plus any airline restrictions. Thank you for your help!
