Q. I purchased a shuttle pass, where do I go?
You will exit the Staten Island Ferry St. George Terminal in the front (south side) and turn left to find the passenger pick up/drop off. There you will see a large white 15 passenger van. That’s your ride! Here’s a map circling said passenger pick up /drop off area: http://imgur.com/kwlbGpd
Q. What's for dinner?
You can bring your own food (picnic style), cook your own food with a campstove (or over the fire) or purchase food from Mi Casa who will be on site!
Q. Can I drive myself?
Yes, there is parking on site. **Please do not use the Google Maps address for Kaufman it will lead you astray!** For GPS use: 1215-1251 Manor Rd, Staten Island, NY you will see the entrance to the "JCC camp" across the street from the school. That's where you turn.
Once you park you'll see a path on the left hand side of the lot leading up to a lake where check-in is.
