Opinion
12 Things to Know Before You Go on CLTC!
- You will meet your best friends.
- Make the best of the experience, because it feels like it ends instantly when you’re having the best time.
- Bring a fan with you. The cabins don’t have any ac so it gets humid inside with about 15 people in each cabin.
- Take as many pictures and videos as you can.
- Make sure someone in your session brings a hammock (or bring one yourself).
- There are only 2 outlets per 4 people so bring an extension cord.
- Talk to everyone, you don't know who will become your best friends.
- Bring a speaker, music brings people together.
- Shabbat is going to be your favorite part of CLTC.
- Bring regional clothes that you don’t like and trade with different people because they might like something you don’t like, and you can get something they have from their region.
- Only 3 people to a hammock or else they're all gonna be gone by the second day
- Bring options for shabbat because it’s always hard to choose what to wear.
