At our camp, our most lost item is beach towels, as that is not an item that kids aren't used to carrying around or to what design their parents packed for them

Get a stamp and stickers for clothes with your child's name and info. It takes a lot of time to get everything together and mark everything so plan accordingly, and these help speed up the process.

Get Camp shirts ahead of time so you can properly mark them with your kids name because there will be at least 100 kids with the same shirt.

Iron on name tags have saved my son from losing so many things other than clothes. I even put them on his shoes. I know with my son it was necessary since he was sent with rain boots too.

As a former camp counselor and now a parents of two campers, you must organize and label everything! Items get lost at camp, whether in the cabin or during weekly laundry. So label everything and it helps your items find their way back to you:)
