Start Date

Hellooo my fellow officers, i have received my start date which is 2 weeks from today, i also received my academy date which is aug 11th, but i had only received the date and nothing else like what to pack or bring!! Will they eventually give me information on what to pack and weather id be lodging there or not? Its about 2 1/2 hours from me in elizabethtown. Just curious why they gave a date but no other information
