Transportation Details

A camp chaperoned bus travels along Route 95 stopping at designated spots between Limestone and South Portland for each camp session. Families will receive a transportation form in the spring that allows the family to indicate how a camper will be arriving and departing from camp. Families have the option of selecting the camp bus on this form. The specific stop information can be seen on online portal once a camper has applied for camp. This is subject to change. Please contact Maine School of Science & Mathematics for details.
