items to include in a gym bag?
It's been a while since I've competed (4 years), plus I'm an airhead, so I need some help with this... I'm trying to put together a list of things for the girls to make sure they have in their bag when going to a meet. Here's what I have so far:

grips
wristbands
[chalk]
hair ties & pins
[hairspray]
athletic tape
small towel or cloth
tampons or pads

[]=optional



Any more ideas?

Bog and the OP have it figured out pretty much. Bandaids, bactine, gauze, cotton balls, q-tips, extra clips, ponytail holders, bobby pins, a mini can of hairspray, tampon/pads and nail polish remover were all in a little bag we as the coaches carried.

Well, I have been carrying hair clips, brush, nail polish remover and extra glitter spray (because there MUST be glitter ) in my purse - it's just not with her.
