Arrivals & Departures

Every residential camp session starts at 11:00 am on the first day of camp.  The one, two and four week sessions wrap up at 11:00 am on the last day of the session, except for the one week kinder camp that ends at 2 pm on the last day.

The parking of cars will be orchestrated for you by our friendly staff.  You will be directed to the parking area where you will be met by your camper’s counsellor who will assist you with your luggage and show you to your camper’s cabin to get settled in.  Spend an hour touring the camp, then say bye-bye: our first camper lunch together starts at noon.

We ask that you do not arrive before 11:00 am as we are busy right up until that time preparing the camp  for your arrival.  The busy staff are not “ in position”  to meet and greet you before that time, or to assist you to your cabin.   

A school bus comes and goes from Ottawa on the first and last day of the two weeks sessions.  They depart from and return to the lower IKEA parking lot at Pinecrest Mall.  To camp:  Buses depart at 9:30 am      From Camp:  Buses arrive in Ottawa at noon.  Bus  transportation is accompanied by two counsellors and costs a reasonable $30 (+ HST) one way.

Arrangements can be made with the office to pick up and deliver International travellers from the Ottawa International airport (sorry, not Toronto).  The fee is $100 (+ HST) return.
