Bus registration and Fee for service- Add bus transportation to your registration if desired. We cannot guarantee a spot on the bus if a seat is not reserved and paid for at least 3 weeks prior to the week of camp. There is a $16 fee each way for Franconia bus and $12 fee each way for William Penn bus. Your transportation needs (to camp and home) and location (Franconia, William Penn Hwy) are indicated on the Statement of Accounts. Please confirm the details and contact us to make changes.
Pre-registration/ Loading the bus- A camper bus registration table will be set up only at the Franconia location. Campers and parents/chaperones will visit the table prior to loading the luggage or the bus to verify necessary information and to receive a name tag for your camper. Please have your camper visit the restroom before boarding the bus they are assigned. A water bottle may be carried on. Unloading the bus- Unloading is more involved; for your camper’s security as we cannot release a camper to any person not authorized by the parent or guardian. You or the authorized person will be asked to sign out your child/children prior to departing.
Chaperoning for the bus- We need chaperones on Sunday’s and Friday’s to accompany the campers. If you indicate an interest in chaperoning, we will call you if we are in need of a chaperone for that week. Please note that only if you are a confirmed chaperone will you receive a reimbursement for the bus fee.

Bus location- Bus service is provided to camp from the Franconia Mennonite Church, located on Route 113 between Harleysville and Souderton (30 miles North of Philadelphia). Please use the Route 113 main entrance NOT the Meeting House Rd. entrance.
