Getting Here and Getting Around
U.S. and Canadian staff will be given a travel stipend and should fly into Newark Airport on their arrival date before 12pm noon. A camp bus will pick you up there and your adventure to camp will start with a warm welcome from our leadership staff and returning counselors. Staff who have their own cars are welcome to drive to camp. There is no extra fee for parking.
For Fun
You will have six days off during the summer (from reveille until curfew), plus two additional nights off each week (6:00 p.m. until curfew), for a total of three (including your day off). On days you’re on, your program director or head counselor will give you a period off. Every Sunday night we have staff nights. The group leaders or senior staff will supervise your campers while you attend a fun event with your fellow counselors. We will give you a Day Off Guide when you get to camp that will give you great ideas of where to explore the area on your nights and days off. Wayne County is a vacation destination for many East Coasters.
