Transportation

Penn Charter Summer Camps Transportation

Transportation can be provided for a limited number of campers ages five and older from Center City and Fairmount. Pick-up/drop-off locations are listed below. 

Due to campus construction, transportation will be by mini bus, and, therefore, limited to 20 campers per bus. If you are interested in transportation, email summercamps@penncharter.com to sign up, and remember to indicate whether you need bus 1, 2 or 3. Signups are first-come, first-served; we will maintain a waitlist after 20 have registered.

Once a transportation request has been approved, any changes to pickup and drop-off locations must be e-mailed well in advance, and a $30 administrative fee will be charged. Friends of campers may not ride the buses unless they have signed up in advance for transportation. We ask your cooperation in registering early for this extra service. For more information, please call or email the Summer Camps office.

Bus transportation is not provided for the week of July 29-Aug. 2.

Round-trip $120/week; one-way $60/week
