Medical tent for school carnival

Published

Hi all!

What are some must have supplies for a medical tent for a school carnival? I want to make sure I don’t miss anything important. Thank you!

Take my normal first aid go bag and may be cooler with some bottled water.

Anything more serious than that, we can go back to the office.

I just now was talking with the attendance clerk about field day. This is GEENIUS. Ima ask for a tent or an awning, bring my lawn chair and my giant cooler on wheels I use for Rangers Opening Day, fill it with ice and small waters and I'll be good to go.

I grab two field trip first aid bags, extra gloves, ice & baggies.

Not gonna lie, I have never really wanted to be outside during our field day but the mental pic in my head of me chilling under a tent/pop up with a giant route 44 tea and a cooler of waters and maybe cheap popsicles for the kids sounds pretty fun! Kick my feet up and watch the games!! ???

Ice. Ice. And then add some more ice. (Dare I say "Ice, ice, baby."?)

Oh I LOVE field day! ?

Anyway, I am at an inner city school that has to bus to a field for the day, so I basically take my entire office with me! I drive my own car, I use my own pop-up tent, my own camp chair and I bring a cooler with a ton of ice, all the inhalers and meds, my emergency bag, and basic first aid stuff. Baby wipes and hand sanitizer are musts as well! The school supplies bottled waters. But we have to use port a pottys...so.....ugh!
