TRANSPORTATION:

It is not at all necessary to have a car, but it will be very helpful. If you have a car, plan to do some ferrying of other participants. If you don't have a car, plan to pay for gas and other driving-related expenses. The two locations where official Catskill Studio for Writing events will be taking place are just a few miles from each other.

At the start and end of the session, we will be making trips to pick participants up from trains and/or buses. Amtrak comes to Rhinecliff, NY, about 16 miles away. Adirondack Trailways buses come to Kingston, about 12 miles away and (once a day) to Saugerties. Precise schedules will be coordinated with participants as the session dates approach.
