As mentioned in our parent handbook and on our transportation and baggage form, all luggage must arrive before the start of camp. There are no exceptions to this requirement. We have a number of options for luggage arrival and departure for our families. Please pick the option that works best for your family.
Luggage Arrival
As noted above, all luggage must arrive before the start of camp. Options for getting your camper’s things to camp are as follows:
- Luggage Drop off: You are welcome to drop off luggage on campus during our drop off day. All drop offs will be on campus at 6832 Phillips Mill Rd, New Hope, PA 18938. Drop off will take place in the parking lot in front of the dining hall (we will send out more specific information closer to the start of camp). Staff will be present to help you unload luggage.
Luggage drop off day:
Monday June 17th from 4:30-7:30 P.M.
- Shipping Luggage: We work with a company called ShipCamps who can arrange for round trip logistics for bags. Please follow the link below to arrange for your daughter’s luggage. Please note that we recommend packing bags so that they are less than 50lbs per bag, as there is a surcharge for overweight bags.
Luggage Departure
We have the following options when getting your camper’s luggage at the end of camp. We recommend you consider all the options and pick the most cost effective option for you:
- If you are picking up your daughter on campus, you can pick up her luggage with her. We will send specific information about pickup about a week before departure.
- If your daughter is flying home unaccompanied or you are an international family, we can on occasion arrange for luggage to depart with her on her flight, but all fees associated with checked baggage must be taken care of beforehand, and proof of fee payment must be sent to the office. We recommend arranging shipping instead to avoid any delays in your daughter’s flight home.
- Any family utilizing one of our transportation stops that is not an on campus pickup (including our Plymouth Meeting, NJ, and accompanied flight from the airport stops) must utilize ShipCamps.
- You can schedule a one way or round trip through their website.
Please let us know if you have any questions. We look forward to a great summer!
