• Boys Packing List
• Girls Packing List

• • • Get a Spray tan the day before we leave for Nationals (Monday) or apply your first coat of lotion.
    • Bring along a good tanning lotion to apply the night before competition (Example: if your team final is Saturday, apply Friday night).
    • If you have never used the lotion you choose, try it out a couple weeks in advance. Then you can see if it applies evenly and how long it lasts. You can also find a make-up foundation that will match. If you find you have streaks, try mixing your tanning lotion with a regular lotion for the first coat.
    • Make sure to exfoliate. Read instructions for how long to wait to shower or sweat.
