Essentials for Camp
What you will need
Our participants are on the ice several times and day. In addition we have off-ice conditioning programs. Given the intensity of the camp and the frequency of the training you should bring plenty of quick drying under clothing so you can let one dry and wear the other.
To get the most out of your time at the Junior Prep Hockey Camp and to make your stay with us as pleasant and comfortable as possible you MUST bring the following:
- Complete set of Hockey Equipment for full contact play. (Helmet with Visor or cage is Mandatory)
- Players not yet signed to Junior teams must wear full cage
- Mouth guard for Junior-carded players
- Neck guard for all minor hockey carded players
- No exceptions - players will not be allowed on the ice without the above appropriate equipment
- Athletic shoes and several pairs of shorts and tee shirts for off-ice training
- Sleeping bag, mattress sheet, and pillow ( We supply mattress and bunk beds)
- Camping stores sell very light weight and compact sleeping bags and pillows
- Port Alberni is very hot in the summer - Light sleeping gear highly recommended
- 2 bath towels and personal toiletries
- Comfortable clothes and shoes for off-ice relaxation and sleeping
- Lock for lockers
- Spending money for trips to the corner store (we run a ‘bank’ for campers’ cash)
- Spending money for potential additional adventure opportunities currently in the planning stage
- Bathing suit for one afternoon at Sproat Lake!
