For the way to and from camp, we are using a new bus site – Old Navy Skokie, 9435 Skokie Blvd, Skokie, IL 60077. You will need to fill your child's water bottle and use the restroom before drop off. The bus pulls away at 10AM. Please plan to be there by 9:15.
- Check in & Medication Drop off: A staff member will collect any medication that could not be sent through Hometown Pharmacy (rescue inhalers and EpiPens should stay with the camper in case of an emergency).
- Final Luggage & Bus Boarding: There are no assigned seats. You are free to wait for the buses to leave but we ask that you go to the drivers side (parking lot side to wait).
IMPORTANT: Parents are not allowed to enter the bus and campers are not able to get off the bus once they are on. We will remind you during check in.
Please Note: Our transportation partners at Kobussen Bus Lines are adhering to very strict cleaning and screening protocols. Each bus is thoroughly cleaned and disinfected at the end of each trip, and drivers go through a thorough health screening at the start of each shift.
LEAVING CAMP: Our buses back to Chicago will all arrive at Old Navy Skokie, 9435 Skokie Blvd, Skokie, IL 60077 around 12:45pm (remember we are coming from Waupaca, so sometimes we hit traffic!). that you arrive at least 20 minutes before buses are scheduled to arrive. Upon arrival, the parent/guardian picking up must check in at the CYJ table.
NOAR DEPARTURE DAYS: Once we finalize which campers will be extending their stay with us, we will be in touch with specific times of both camper pick up and bus drop off.
