Hello, IF a trip/excursion is wanted, as was mentionned before, public transportation can be used e.g. to Neuchâtel (slow) or Yverdon (slightly faster). Note that the Swiss Railway System has group tickets, so we might get a discount on the normal price if we travel together.
However, this may prove impractical when returning late, unless using the Noctambus (e.g. departs 02h15 and 04h00 from Neuchâtel to Vaumarcus) http://www.noctambus-ne.ch/index.php?page=horaire at 7 CHF per person (5.90 if 6 people). Runs friday and saturday night. Another possibility would be to use Le Camp's 12 seat bus, or possibly other buses, driven by us (D permit required). Or we could ask a transporter: 100+ places buses are not that expensive per seat. I suggest we collect excursion ideas for later, and then propose something. Cultural: visit the castle[1], if it is still possible. Nature: walking is free, and from Le Camp you can go to many places (bath at the lake -- usually adequate temperature in August -- or take the boat for a lake excursion [2]; climb up the mountains to the Creux-du-Van natural preservation site [3], about 4 to 5 hours return depending on your condition. Socializing/partying: Neuchâtel La Case-à-Chocs (alternative) http://www.case-a-chocs.ch/ La Chaux-de-Fonds Bikini Test (alternative) Neuchâtel Bar King (mainstream, also boat partying) Bigger parties would be in Lausanne, Berne, Geneva or Zürich ($$) [1] https://plus.google.com/109162155267014464339/about?gl=US&hl=fr [2] http://www.navig.ch/navigation.php?id=11&page=horaire_pdf&lang=en e.g. departure 9:45 from Vaumarcus, return at 11:50, itinerary does the west of the lake. You can also continue to Neuchâtel, doing the whole lake, arriving at 13:45, and either come back with the train or the boat at 15:55 in Vaumarcus. There are some 20 CHF "daily tickets". You can either eat on board ($$$) or get a lunch take-away meal prepared by Le Camp at a discount price from the normal menu. There is free WiFi on board. Not every day. Might change in 2013.
