These are the items that are always good to bring with you to a LARP; some of them are rather obvious, while others might seem a little less intuitive until you run into a situation where they are indispensable. If you are not paying for a meal plan, you will need to bring food for the entire weekend; please note that some of our sites are rather remote, so there may not be a convenient option for getting food off site.
