Back to school means students bringing in pencils, notebooks, snacks, hand sanitizer, and much more. And it's a financial and logistical burden. Why can't we do this better?

Also, are you afraid that you're running out of time for summer camping? Maybe you should be afraid of the camping itself. We'll tell you why it's healthy to go into the woods with a heart full of fear.
