By signing up for a bus, families are agreeing to the following policies:
EACH MORNING: Families should ensure that their children are ready to board the bus at least ten minutes before its scheduled arrival time each morning. Drivers may arrive during this ten-minute span and can reasonably expect children to be ready. The bus driver will wait only two minutes for a child who is not present.
EACH AFTERNOON: Drivers will wait 2-3 minutes past the expected arrival time. Bus Counselor(s) will contact any absent parents to get an estimated arrival time. The bus will wait a reasonable length of time for late families but if we cannot reach you and/or you are too far away, your child will be brought back to Green Acres Camp for you to pick up after the rest of the route has been completed.
**IF YOU WOULD LIKE YOUR CAMPER TO BE ABLE TO GET OFF THE BUS WITHOUT A PARENT/GUARDIAN PRESENT AT THE STOP, please email camp@greenacres.org so we can update your transportation information***
I understand that bus services will be provided through Coughlin Transportation Company. A bus counselor will be present on the bus.
I acknowledge the following:
- I will support the camper with appropriate safety precautions for bus transportation.
- I will support the camper with appropriate behavior guidelines while traveling, including by reviewing the camper expectations set form in this form and those in the Green Acres Parent Handbook (pages 2, 3 and 4)
- Participation in camp-provided transportation is voluntary
- If I opt to not use the camp-provided transportation, I understand that I am responsibility for providing transportation for the camper to travel to and/or from camp.
I understand and acknowledge that while traveling to and from campus, the camper is expected to follow all camp rules and policies, including, but not limited to those in the Green Acres Parent Hand Book, and to uphold Green Acres Camp standards of conduct.
I understand and agree that the students failure to follow these expectations may server as the basis for disciplinary action from the camp, including termination of the camp bus-riding privileges.
