Bus transportation (by Dattco) is offered on three separate routes, with a total of 11 stops at convenient locations throughout Greater Hartford. Bus service on these centrally located buses is FREE of charge.

We also provide door-to-door bus service on two separate routes to West Hartford residents for a fee. Every effort is made to ensure a safe ride and to minimize the amount of time spent on the bus. Summer Place counselors supervise the campers on each bus. Note: Bus times are subject to change by DATTCO.
