Summer Camp
How to choose the right size camp trunk. Find out if the camp has any height restrictions on a camp trunk or camp footlocker. Specifically, the height of the camp trunk. Just about all summer camps allow a 14" or 15” high camp trunk. There are a few camps that require a shorter camp trunk though. You can call your camp or look in their parent handbook for height details. Camps refer to them as either trunks or footlockers. If the height doesn’t matter, a Large Rhino camp trunk is the most popular size. Ideal for sessions of 4 weeks or less. The XL Rhino Camp Trunk is best for sessions longer than 4 weeks. A Small Rhino Camp Trunk is better suited for summer camp sessions of 2 weeks or less.
All Rhino camp trunks with wheels are the same height as the same size model without wheels. Rhino is the only American manufacturer that produces trunks where the wheels do not increase the height. It’s Rhino ingenuity! The camp trunk is stable and won’t wobble even with the wheels on. All Rhino camp trunks are so solid (real 3/8” birch plywood), that you can seat over 1000 pounds on them!
Summer Camp Trunks, Camp Footlockers and Summer Camp have been an important part of American tradition since the 1800's for kids, teens, and families. Often an escape from the fast pace of modern life, summer camp today is a chance for kids to take a break from their phones and experience the larger world around them. Summer camps have changed over the years from various themes and activities offered, to gear and supplies that better suit the modern camper. But there’s one iconic piece of the summer camp tradition that’s still going strong. The summer camp trunk! And not just any camp trunk or camp footlocker, but an American Made Rhino.
