Unaccompanied Minors

Unaccompanied Minors are children deemed by the airlines as too young to travel without an escort. Each airline has their own fees and policies regarding unaccompanied minors.

• The airlines will require that you designate one of our camp employees as the responsible adult who will assume custody of your child at Dulles Airport upon their arrival.
• A representative from the airline will escort your child off the plane and accompany them through immigration, baggage collection, and customs.
• Our camp employee will get a security pass to meet the airline representative and the unaccompanied minor (your child), at which time the airline will release the child to our supervision.
• From there, our staff person will take your child to meet the other campers arriving that day.  
• Please contact Director Jud directly at Jud@sma-summers.com or 814-667-3874 to identify the Stone Mountain Adventures employee who will be meeting your child.

Shipping You Luggage to Camp

If your child is taking a van to camp you may need to ship their luggage 4 days before the start of camp. We will contact you about a week prior to your scheduled van trip to confirm if you need to ship your luggage to camp or not.
