Parent Transportation
If parents are providing transportation for their camper(s) and not using Early Care, they may arrive for the camp start at 9 a.m. Camp ends at 4 p.m. each day. For the safety of each camper, the person picking up the camper must sign the child out with the child’s counselor. Every person picking up a child must show a photo ID that matches our list of approved pickups. Staff members are required to check IDs for anyone picking up a child that they cannot name.
Please enter on Black Point Road and exit on the Spurwink Road (Rt.77) entrance. Our speed limit is 5MPH and we ask that no one parks in our bus circle between the hours of 8:45-9:15 and 3:45-4:15. Please observe these measures to keep all children safe at Camp Ketcha and help with traffic flow.
Bus Service
We have one bus that stops at various locations around Greater Portland. Qualified drivers operate all Camp Ketcha buses. Each bus has one or two Camp Ketcha staff monitors who are equipped with a cellular phone. Bus transportation is $85 per week per camper. We will offer bussing to and from camp during weeks 3-9 only. Transportation is not offered in weeks 1, 2, 10, 11, or 12. Bus transportation is provided by Dirigo Bus Lines and bus supervision is provided by Camp Ketcha staff. You will need to sign up for the bus ahead of time on your child’s online account.
*Bus times listed are when the bus leaves the stop. Please arrive 10 minutes early.
