Transportation

Approximately two to five days prior to the opening of Camp, the bus driver will stop at your home and leave an identification tag and other pertinent information. After the first two to three days of Camp, the times of pick-up and take-home will become regular. Early dismissals will be held during the first week and on rainy days. Buses will leave approximately 15 minutes early on these days. Please call if you have any additional questions.

Our transportation for camp covers a wide territory in Nassau and Suffolk county.  We have transported campers as far west as Merrick and Roslyn Heights and as far east as St. James and Bohemia.  Because we cover such a large area, we utilize Educational and Suffolk Bus Companies to provide us with drivers and buses to fulfill our transportation needs.  These two bus companies have assisted Park Shore for over 20 years.

All of our drivers are required to have a commercial driver’s license (CDL) with either a class B or class C.  It is also mandatory that all bus drivers are fingerprinted. Park Shore is 19A certified and complies with the regulations set by the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles (NYSDMV).  These requirements are regulated by the Transportation Director and a Certified 19A Examiner.  Our drivers need to maintain a clean driving record which is reviewed annually.  They are also required to have a physical completed by a certified medical examiner every year.

All Educational and Suffolk transportation buses are inspected biannually by the Department of Transportation.  

Please contact us at any time if you have any questions or concerns.
