Getting Camper Baggage to/From North Star Camp

Please review the following options for getting your camper’s baggage to & from Camp

All baggage should be labeled clearly with each camper’s name so it is delivered to the correct cabin upon arrival at camp. Families with multiple campers should use different duffels for each camper because they may not be in the same cabin.

There are a variety of options to get camper luggage to and from camp:

• U-Haul for the Illinois & Wisconsin bus
  Campers traveling to camp from Chicagoland can bring their luggage to the bus pickup on the morning of departure day. North Star staff members will collect baggage and load it onto a U-Haul. On the return trip home, the U-Haul will arrive about an hour before the bus arrives so families can gather their luggage ahead of time. For Milwaukee & Madison families riding the bus, luggage will be loaded into the undercarriage of the bus both ways.
• Checking Luggage On Flights
  Baggage can be checked on flights for campers flying to/from camp. If you are checking your camper’s bags, it’s important that you let them know to tell their staff chaperones that they need to pick up their bags in Minneapolis.
  
  Please note: any baggage fees incurred at the Minneapolis Airport upon return home will be added to your end-of-summer invoice. Refer to your airlines’ baggage fees (especially oversized/overweight fees) because checking luggage on flights may not be the most cost efficient way to get luggage to/from camp.
