Summer Camp Essentials: Laundry

Hopefully your kids will create dirty laundry and not just wear the same thing each day. We’ve got several items to make that process a whole lot easier.

Laundry Markers: Everything you send to camp needs to be marked and these pens make it quick and easy. The special ink lasts through washing or drycleaning.

Sew In Labels: Instead of marking directly on clothing, you can sew these labels on with just a few stitches and mark them.

Laundry Bags: We have oversized Roughneck drawstring laundry bags in 13 fun colors to encourage your kids to use them.

Summer Camp Essentials: Fun Stuff

Bite Lites: Your kids will think these little lites are really fun. They come in a basic and ultra size and and turn on by squeezing or biting. They can also be attached to a keychain. A bite lite is normally used backstage for quick changes on Broadway but your kids will think their mini flashlight is very cool.
