Will you be able to run summer camp this year?
YES!
What do camp COVID-19 protocols look like?
As both regulations and our understanding of the virus are constantly changing we are meeting weekly to amend and update our systems. Currently our protocol is based on taking a multi-faceted approach to both prevent the virus from entering our camp population and to minimize each persons risk of exposure if there is a positive case. Our primary strategies include:
Screening- Our campers, staff, and guests are all screened for symptoms before entry to the camp environment and then re-screened each subsequent day.
Testing- All campers need to have a negative covid-19 test result within 72 hours prior to arrival at camp.
Sanitation- We have greatly increased our already aggressive sanitation schedule and hand-washing enforcement. We have adjusted our cleaning policies based on advisement created by the American Camp Association and their contractor Environmental Health & Engineering, Inc. We also have multiple supervised hand-washing checkpoints on our campus.
Cohorts- Our campers are split into small groups that minimize the amount of people each camper is exposed to throughout their time at camp. While camp cohort sizes are not yet finalized, based on state guidance for schools and other programs we anticipate cohort size to be somewhere between 20 and 40 campers.
Face Masks- We currently require face masks in all shared spaces with the exception of camper bedrooms. (Skaters are permitted to drop their masks while outdoors on their board when extreme social distancing is possible.)
Social Distancing- We have limited the capacity of athletic and social spaces on our campus to ensure that social distancing is possible throughout.
