□ Team Leaders will have cell phones for emergency situations. We will email the parents our numbers before we leave, along with an emergency number for SOAR.

CLOTHING GUIDELINES

□ Clothing:  Bring 6-8 changes of clothing. We will be doing laundry once. When packing, remember that modesty is the theme for ministry of any kind.  You are on the front lines of missions, representing Christ. Go against culture and don't draw attention to your clothing or body!

□ Girls:  Do not bring shirts that are overly tight or that reveal the waist.  Tank tops must have straps that are one-inch thick. Modest bathing suits are allowed. Short shorts are unacceptable.

□ Guys:  Do not go shirtless unless swimming.  Please make sure that your undergarments are covered at all times. Short shorts are unacceptable.

□ Make sure you bring comfortable shoes for long days of walking.
