Teenster, try going to your local Kohls or Dicks and getting some Soffe shorts. I usually get the plain black ones but I'm pretty positive they come in white and navy too, they are logo free, and are really comfy... oh and cheap. Like 7.99 or less.
Soffe Shorts at Kohls more soffe shorts
We only have to wear a uni shirt. We have to pay for them, they're 6 dollars each and they recommend we get 7-10 of them. I got 7 tank tops and one t-shirt (just incase, but I really hate t-shirts) They're white with the camp logo on them. I was gonna get my own sweatshirt the other day but our camp goes through cloz.com and I'm sorry but that is just ridiculously expensive..

how much were they charging for the camp hoodie - our camp hoodies were $25 I think - and I know that the 2 years they only offered them for the staff and we could get our camp names embroidered on it that was all they cost!

The hoodies were anywhere from 30-50 dollars but of course... i dont want the 30 dollar one lol  actually I can't even afford that one but I suppose taking a step back it isn't really that expensive...
Oh, OK. I can't wear basketball shorts, they do weird things up by my thighs lol Also I'm not skinny enough to pull them off... or at least I wasn't the last time I tried.

As a bigger person I prefer basketball length or longer shorts to shorter ones!
$30 isnt that bad but $50 is!

Munchy, we do have a few week-long sessions of a Harry Potter-theme!
I know, one of the first things I did was go to the GSEM website and download the book that shows a list of camps :P:P Read it about 4 times.
I'm assuming we don't have a uniform at Cedarledge, except for the staff shirt we get given for opening and closing days?

I should mention most of my very good friends are those 5'10 gymorexic, tom boy, athletic types. I just look a foold trying to pull of basketball shorts next to them lol. I usually go mid thigh length, never super short. I always get my soffe shorts a size or two up so I can roll them, they're baggy, and they still end mid-thigh...

I would have thought that if you needed anything else you would have been told when you were sent your kit list - one of the GS camps I worked at we had to wear white and green for evening flag - but it was made very clear on the kit list that we needed that!

That is good that they have set up discounts for you! I will check them out cos over here most shorts tend to me much shorter than I am comfortable wearing!

Yup, sure we would have been told, just wanted to confirm that I hadn't missed anything by accident. I'd hate to look a dill.
Indigo: Awww.... but I look so good in transparent, skimpy clothing ;P That's a lie... I'd actually look pretty bad, should I ever choose to actually wear stuff like that.
I tend to cover up, hence why I'm increadibly pale. Hoping to get a little tan at camp

A hoon is a (usually young) crazy-fast driver.
And then there's good-as (and other things -as), as you do, and... oh, there were some other fun ones!
