From Hot Wheels to Jet planes- We are here to make sure everyone arrives at Camp Empire Lake in Style!

How will you be arriving at camp? Here are some options:

By Car: Families are welcome to drop their campers off at Empire Lake by car and take a look around the camp grounds, meet our wonderful staff and stick around for a BBQ lunch (one cookie per parent please!).

By Bus: Whether you live close to the pick up points, or just can’t get enough of singing “The Wheels on the Bus,” all campers are invited to hop on the Empire Lake-mobile to arrive in style.

We provide free transportation (camp buses and vans) from the Boston and New York areas for campers on opening day (and back to the city on closing day). There is no better way to get a head start on meeting some of the friendly faces of our staff and your fellow campers. You can expect big smiles, cheesy songs and some hilarious bus games that will leave everyone feeling like Empire Lake is home before you have even arrived!

By Plane: Are you coming from farther a field? If you are jet setting into camp this summer, prepare for fanfare upon your arrival at the airport! We are happy to pick up all campers arriving to JFK, LaGuardia, and Newark. How will you know who we are? Just look for the waving, smiling people in staff shirts.

If you require pickup from another airport, let us know and we will do our best to accommodate you . . . no one will be left to hike to camp!
