Well, you will be very cold in your tent without a sleeping bag - or at least a blanket. It gets very cold at night you know, even during the summer. l would also take a paraffin lamp, as it is better than a torch. Something like this: http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd33/Murderdogs/101_0568.jpg?t=1219501377

My answer to u is go shopping there is a lot of things u need.Ill give u a few things.

tent
sleeping bags
stove
lamp
pots
and pans
dishes
cups
silverware
utensil is for cooking
we put our tent on a tarp for the water not to get in our tent
Make sure u put a sealer on the seams of ur tent so if it does rain it keeps the rain out.
Ice chest
l always bring plastic bags
toilet paper
water jug large size
soap for dishes
l told u there wasa lot & there is more.

A helpful tip, is to swing by a camping store & get some seam sealer, like kiwi camp dry & treat ur tent at least several days before u go. This will also let u learn how to set up ur tent & become familiar with it, before u learn that the sun likes to set on campers just before they get their tent up. lol. If u use a ground cover under ur tent, a big mistake newbies do is leave it sticking out from the sides. You should not be able to see the groundcloth at all. Find a scout troop by calling ur local office, They would love to share good sound advice, & offer suggestions on where good places to camp r located.
