TRAVEL

If you are driving to Camp, our address is 264 Highway Above the Clouds, Mentone, AL 35984. Apple Maps or Google Maps will give you clear and correct directions.

If your camper is flying to Camp alone, we no longer offer airport shuttles on Opening or Closing Day. However, send us an email, and we can try and help you connect with a former camp staff member to be her airport driver!

SHIPPING TRUNKS

If you are planning to ship your camper’s trunk or duffel bag to or from Camp, please use Ship Camps to schedule your shipment online!

Junior Term: 8 – 10 AM on Thursday, May 29.

First Term: 8 – 10 AM on Wednesday, June 25.

Second Term: 8 – 10 AM on Wednesday, July 23rd.

CLOSING DAY FLOW

You’ll be directed to a designated parking area, and once parked, you can go and greet your camper at her cabin!

Some parents like to come early to listen to the girls sing in the Dining Hall and greet their camper right after breakfast. If you’d like to do that, you’ll want to get to Camp around 7:30!
