ARRIVAL BY AIR

If you plan on flying to or from the event, please make plans to fly into and out of:

Rochester NY International Airport (ROC) (70-90 minutes from camp))
This is a major International Airport with all major airlines direct flights to almost all originating airports that people would use.  

  • For more info about the airport, visit rochesterairport.org
  • We will be meeting the Mosaic Shuttle at (terminal location TBD. Stay tuned!)
MOSAIC SHUTTLE

Shuttle transportation will be provided from Rochester International Airport for all who register and pre-pay for the service.

If you want to take the Mosaic Shuttle Bus from Rochester NY International Airport please plan to arrive by 2:30 p.m. on Thursday, August 28. The Mosaic Shuttle will leave Rochester Airport at 3:30 p.m. sharp to beat rush hour traffic. Cost is $60 round trip.

ARRIVAL BY VAN FROM NEW JERSEY

NJ PASSENGER VAN

We MAY be renting a 15-passenger van from Central N.J. If we do, the van would do a round trip to/from the event.  Limit 8 people plus luggage.

You’re welcome to park your car at a safe location in Northern NJ. We are investigating possible pickup points. Reasonable requests will be taken for pickups as long as we keep close to the original route to camp. Cost is $60 for a round trip fare which is less than the cost of gas if you were to drive yourself there.   

NOTE: Do not sign up for this option if you plan to participate in the Post-Trip as we will have no way to get you back home. The Post Trip will end at the Rochester Airport.

If you are driving to camp in your own car or a rented car, you will not need to pay for any shuttles. Check-in at camp opens at 4:00 p.m. Please be kind to the organizers and do not arrive beforehand (we will turn you away at the door if you do).  Keep in mind, there may be heavy traffic on Thursday afternoon.

If you arrive between 6:30 p.m. and  8:00 p.m. please head directly to the dining hall and leave your stuff in the car for later.

If you are driving in from Canada or points west and will be passing Rochester, please let us know if you would you be willing to pick up people at the airport. Compensation is available.
