We understand that air travel can be stressful for you as a parent. If you have any questions or concerns, our Assistant Director Zoe is here to assist you. Please email 6PointsOfficeManager@urj.org to get in touch with her.

In an email later this spring, we will share specific arrival day times, policies, and procedures. Camper drop-off will be from 9:30AM-11:00AM. Parents will remain in the car for the entirety of the drop-off process (except for a hug and kiss goodbye).

On your child’s last day of camp, pick-up is between 9:00AM-10:30AM.

Camp will offer bus transportation to/from Atlanta, Raleigh, and Greensboro on each opening and closing day. The fee is $150.00 per camper, each way. Sign up by completing the Transportation form. Campers can take the bus one way or round trip. 

Complete travel information can be found in the Parent Handbook, which will be available in your CampInTouch account in early March!

From/To Atlanta: There will be an air-conditioned chartered bus departing from and arriving to Temple Sinai in Atlanta. The cost is $150 per camper. 

From/To Raleigh & Greensboro: There will be an air-conditioned bus departing from and arriving to Temple Beth Or in Raleigh, making a stop at Round1 Bowling in Greensboro. The cost is $150 per camper. 

Luggage can travel with your camper, but you are welcome to ship it to and from camp! This will help to alleviate congestion on Opening and Closing Day and ensure that your child’s luggage is waiting in their room when they arrive at camp. If you are driving to camp and arriving in Asheville the day before camp opens, we ask that you drop your child’s luggage off at the front gate on that Monday between 4-6pm. 

Families whose campers are traveling by car will be able to drop off their bags with our staff when they arrive and pick them up for departure. Campers arriving by bus or by air will be able to put their bags on the bus. All luggage will be loaded and unloaded with assistance from our staff. Please assist us by assuring that your camper knows what their bags look like and that their name is legible on their luggage or luggage tag.

We are so thrilled to be partnering with ShipCamps this summer. With premier customer service and complimentary insurance coverage, we are taking the experience of shipping luggage to/from camp to the next level. You can access ShipCamps through your CampInTouch (CIT) account or by clicking here.
