> Long Pants for Track Events
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Forgot that one. Thankfully the staff at the drags overlooked it.

> Swim Suit
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ That's optional.

I think you forgot a cooler for all the beer you'll be drinking and fireworks for SHOnut to play with (might also want to bring earplugs).
