Lark Camp Children's Workshops

Kid Special

* If you are paying for a child under 12, you can receive a discount rate by teaching a one-hour a day children's workshop at camp. Workshops on music, dance, theater, crafts, nature, juggling, story telling, instrument making are all good themes. If your workshop requires materials, you must provide them. Your workshop should be 1 hour long and offered daily. This is a great way to save a bit of money and to share your creative energy with the younger folks at camp. Please call (707) 964-4826 and talk to Mickie or Beth if you have any questions.

Read this great article about the Lark Camp Kids Play with photos of the play being rehearsed.

Lark Shuttle

VIA-Adventures provides 2 buses for easy and frequent transportation between camps. Buses leave both Camp Two and Camp One every half-hour. Workshop times in Camp One start on the hour with workshops in Camp Two and Three on the half hour. The buses leave either camp at 10 & 40 minutes after the hour and arrive at their respective destinations at approximately 20 minutes and 50 minutes after the hour. The bus trip is a short 10 minutes. The buses operate from 8:00 am to 3:00 am. The buses have been nicknamed Camp Four and have developed into an on-going portable party and session.

Bicycling between camps is encouraged, bring bicycles.

Driving between camps is not permitted. If anyone has to make frequent trips to town they will be parked in an area that does not require driving through camp.



Parking, Carpooling
& Getting To Camp

The California Department of Parks and Recreation is requiring us to cut down on the number of cars within camp; therefore no cars will be allowed in a possible camping space. This means if you are not staying in your vehicle it must go to long term parking. Long term parking is in Camp Three, 1-1/4 miles from the center of Camp One and 1/2 mile from Camp Two; a shuttle bus runs every half hour. We will not be able to make exceptions to the parking policy. Carpooling is encouraged. If you can offer or need a ride please use the Lark Camp Carpool Webpage to organize carpools.

Notes on using public transportation to get to Lark Camp.

Pre-Purchase parking passes for Lark Camp $50.00.
Your parking pass will be given to you when you arrive at Lark Camp.

ALL vehicles and trailers at camp are required to have a parking pass.

If you have a car and a trailer you will need 2 parking passes.

If you are not sure that you will bring a vehicle to camp, you can pre-purchase a parking pass anytime before June 18 for $50.

If you pre-purchase a parking pass and then do not bring a vehicle, contact us after camp for a refund.

You may purchase a parking pass on your way into Lark Camp by cash or check for $60.00.
