It's Select and All-Stars season. For us, that means every weekend we are watching one or more tournaments in the Texas heat and humidity. Half of the time, we're away from home and staying in a hotel. Special preparations are required to save our lives and our pocketbook!
In true Dreena-fashion, I made a couple of checklists to help us not only survive but thrive during tournament season. Keep in mind that there are one to three youngsters in tow who are not playing ball so some of these preparations cater to them. My goal is to keep everyone well hydrated and reasonably well fed so that when we have a long enough break to go eat, we are able to make healthier choices. Certainly this strategy would apply to lots of hot-weather activities; think: 4th of July, swim meets, soccer matches; the list is endless.
Here is my packing list for tournament weekends, printable in PDF format. It's two pages.

If you include other items in your comfort/survival packs, let me know! I am always working to improve our process. You too can look this relaxed at the ballpark!
