assume your child is arriving by car unless you contact us in

$40 round trip fee. Please provide detailed information of arrival
mode (bus, train, plane) date and time (bus #, train #, plane

conclude at 1 pm on the first day of each camp. The final session
of each camp will end at approximately 11 am on the final day
of camp.

to arrive the day before or stay after the camp ends for some
local sightseeing attractions, you may contact any of these

do not have to pay for parking when dropping off or picking
up your child from camp. However if you wish to observe the
final instructional session on the last day of camp, you can
pick up a parking pass at check in. Be careful parking in non-designated
areas because parking tickets are too common.

A parking permit must be purchased if a campers car will be
parked on campus. The fee is $5.00 a day. Campers who drive
are also required to turn in their car keys to the camp director
at check in. Keys will be returned at the conclusion of camp.

from camp. If you have made other arrangements, please notify

Spending Money: We recommend
that each camper bring about $40- $50. We have a camp bank where
they can store their money in a safe place. There will be a
camp store selling t shirts and pizzas available for order.
