The only recommendation I have concerning tents is to make certain your boy knows how to put it together and break it down before he uses it on a campout.. The Tents, pallets and cots will already be set-up for each of the summer camps (Woodruff and Rainey).  Due to COVID-19, everyone is tenting separately.
