  • Oregon Thai Camp Neccessities?

    I have been training Muay Thai under Khuen Kru Jeff Westfall at Rising Phoenix in Evansville, IN for the past 2 years. I am attending my first Oregon Camp and would like input on what to bring and what to leave at home. Thanks!! Be advised I'm flying in, so I will be somewhat limited on how much stuff I can pack.

    Mike,

    I went in 03, and I think the location is different (not sure though), either way here are some suggestions:

    several pair of shorts
    several tank tops or t-shirts
    bunch of socks
    toiletries (duh)
    2 pair of running shoes (one for the runs and one for training)
    flip flops for going to showers
    sweats and maybe a light jacket (it gets chilly at night and early morning)
    couple pair of hand wraps
    bag gloves
    thai pads
    groin guard
    mouth guard
    and money (to buy gear sold there and for out in town)
    sleeping bag and pillow

    This should all fit into one suit case and should be all you need. I may be forgetting a few things but don't think so.

    Oh, be sure and ask Khuen Khru about the written test! Study! Especially the Thai/English vocabulary. Half the test is on this.

    MOst improtant: Have a great time! It is an awesome experience and sooo much skill and talen is there.

    Good luck!

      The test!

      Study the vocab now. You're going to be tired and want a nap in the afternoon, or at least be able to relax and enjoy. If you have that test to worry about the stress bites a__. Learn the vocab now.

        I'd take some cold weather gear. I remember camp Wilkerson was significantly colder than the other location. Sensei Paulson was there the year I attended camp Wilkerson and gave me a pair of his running leggings. That was super cool!
