Travel
Note: All bus pickups and drop offs depend on space and availability. Routes begin at 7:10. You must be on time; we will not wait for late campers. Our shuttles are in Yellow School Buses or Camp Van. A bus monitor is in the bus at all times. There is no charge for the morning shuttle. There is a fee for the afternoon Shuttle. (see fees under Registration) Money must be paid in full before each week for this service.
No camper will be dropped off without an adult listed on the pickup permission sheet present to sign for the child. If no one is present with permission to sign for the child when the bus arrives for drop off, the camper will be brought back to the site. The camper is then to be picked up by 6:30 from the site and the daily after camp fee will be charged.
