**How much spending money should a child bring to camp?**
It depends on your store's prices and session length. Many camps suggest an amount on the packing list or registration page so families don't guess.

**Why do camps use store accounts instead of cash?**
Accounts prevent lost cash in cabins, let parents set limits and keep a record of every purchase.
