Santa Cruz Day Camp
Transportation
A note: Please see our 2021 banner above. We don’t expect to offer full transportation like in previous years and the fee structure will change. We are waiting for state and county guidance.
Getting To and From Camp
Bus transportation is available from Capitola, Soquel, Aptos, Santa Cruz, Scotts Valley, Los Gatos, Willow Glen and Campbell. Want to add a new stop? Please contact us with your suggestions.
Each of our yellow school buses bears a Kennolyn sign and is staffed with a cheerful counselor wearing a Day Camp t-shirt. Bus counselors check campers in each morning, ride with them on the bus, and finally help them find their group counselors upon arrival at camp. At the end of the day, the same counselors accompany campers on their return trips to the same bus stops, where they check campers out to parents or guardians. Please note: Our Willow Glen transport service utilizes 15 passenger vans instead of the school buses.
Day Camp truly starts on the buses! Our campers sing songs, tell jokes, and make friends with their bus mates. They also work with their bus counselors to develop original cheers to share with the entire camp during Closing Circle.
Sign up for which stop you would like or whether you are planning to drive as you register. You may also log in to your online account, call 831-476-6714 ext 449, or email camps@kennolyn.com.
