Easter camp shopping list

Planning a three-day Easter camp means shopping for more than meals and chocolate eggs. You need enough sleeping gear, reusable tableware, cooking equipment, lighting, decorations and activity supplies for the full group. Plan food by participant and meal, then add a small buffer for seconds and spills. Buy fresh produce as close to the camp as possible, and check every item before loading the transport.

Tips

Plan at least one reusable plate, bowl, cup, knife, fork and spoon per participant, plus 10% extra for items left in sleeping areas or waiting to be washed.
For a three-day camp, count one sleeping mat, blanket and cushion per person, then pack two or three spare sleeping sets for damaged or forgotten gear.
Buy cooking quantities by meal rather than by day: allow extra chicken thighs and side dishes for second servings, and keep chilled food in coolers until it is prepared.
Pack one thermos flask or kettle for each hot-drinks station you plan to run, and bring extension cords and rechargeable lamps before the venue opens so evening setup does not depend on room lighting.
Separate footballs, korfbals, frisbees, ribbons and Easter decorations into activity boxes before departure; this prevents a missing item from delaying the first game or craft session.

Frequently asked questions

What food do I need for a three-day Easter camp?: Plan breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks for each of the three days, based on the final participant count and dietary requirements. Add roughly 10% extra portions for seconds, spills and late arrivals.
How many plates and cups do I need for Easter camp?: Start with one reusable plate, bowl and cup per participant, plus one complete spare set for every 10 people. If washing facilities are limited, plan two sets per person so one set can be in use while the other is cleaned.
How much sleeping equipment is needed for an Easter camp?: Provide one sleeping mat, blanket and cushion for every participant and escort. Add two or three complete spare sets, and check the quantities at least one week before the camp so missing items can still be borrowed or bought.
When should I buy groceries for Easter camp?: Order cupboard goods and drinks 7 to 10 days before the camp, then buy fresh produce one or two days before departure. Check coolers, thermos flasks and cooking equipment before the fresh shopping is done.
