Cathedral Camp Bus Schedule & Routes
Note: The information listed below represents last year's bus routes and times. Any changes for 2010 will be posted on this page in early April 2010. Please call with any questions. Thank you!
Campers must be at their pick-up points 10 minutes before the assigned time.
Parents must be at child’s drop-off point 10 minutes before the appointed time. If you are not there on time, the bus company will call the camp and we, in turn, will call you. If you (or a designated pick-up person) do not then arrive promptly, the bus will proceed to finish its route and then return to your stop. If you or the designated pick-up person are still not there, the child will be returned to camp, and it will be your responsibility to get him or her home.
If you foresee that you or another responsible adult cannot be at the drop-off point on time, please call the camp (508-763-8874), so that the bus driver can be notified by radio. Since this procedure is a serious inconvenience to all concerned, please be on time to meet your child.

Bus Safety Guidelines
- If you are going to meet the bus, please wait at the stop, not across the street. This is especially important for young children who might be too excited to wait for the bus driver’s instruction to cross the street.
- If children must cross the street, remind them of L – R – L. First look to the left, then to the right, and then left again, before crossing the street or even a driveway.
- Discuss the Bus Safety Zone with your children. Remind them that if they are inside the 10 foot (5 giant steps) area around the bus, the driver may not be able to see them.
- Anything dangling on your child’s clothing or backpack—like loose drawstrings—could get caught in the handrail or door of the bus.
- Children cannot eat on the bus because of the possibility of choking due to frequent stops and turns of the bus.
