The Ragnarok Packing Guide

In putting together our rough packing list for the trip to Slippery Rock, I thought it might be good to post it up as guide for the inexperienced and to serve as a reminder to the veterans.  Plus, I could use the feedback because I am sure I am forgetting something.  (Excuse the overlap with the Planning Guide)  So...here goes:

The Ragnarok Packing Guide:

Min. Required:

Tent
Sleeping Bag/Blankets
Garb
Plate and/or bowl  (wood or metal)
Cup/mug
Fork and/or spoon
Money for Toll (Ohio Turnpike baby!)
Money for wood
Toiletries
Towel
Sunscreen
Prescriptions
Weapons


KoA Highly Recommends:

Tarps (for under the tent)
Pillows
Underthings
Cool weather garb for night fighting and/or sleeping (it can get pretty chilly at night)
Flashlights
Camp chairs
Flip flops (for the showers....ewwwww....)
Phone chargers
Umbrellas
Extension cords
Gear repair kits
Money for Merchant's Row
Money for Restaurant Nigh
A Knife


Optional:

Air Mattress
Extra blankets
Quarters and soap for laundry
Bathing Suit (for Beach Day)
Money for food vendors
Entertainment (books, games, decks of cards)
Armor


This is by all means not an inclusive list and is meant as a generic list only.  Food-related items are not included here because it is dependent on Houses.  Check with your House Lord about your responsibilities for provisions.  Also, House Lords have additional requirements for group gear not listed here (canopies, walls/posts, tools etc).  


All that being said, I can also say:  Don't sweat it!  If you forget something the campground's two food vendors and camp store probably have you covered.  If they don't have what you need, the nearest Walmart will be happy to help you part with your cash.

Feel free to comment with suggestions / recommendation (admins feel free to edit!).  The more input we get on this thing, the better it will be.

Good luck!
