I remember when I attended ICREWOOD, one of the things that I packed
was my guitar because I am a musician.  I had a lot of down time, and
the computers they had for students to use didn't have internet access
which was very annoying.  I made a bit of money playing at a nearby
park which was pretty cool.  Congrads on going to LCB, hope you do
very well there.  Use the list they provided on the website, but don't
stress to much about it.  Good luck.
