On Campus & Online Summer Camps 2021

Temperature Check and Health Screening Form

Parents/guardians must complete a temperature check and health screening for their camper before arriving on campus. This form will be emailed to families prior to the start of each camp.

SunScreen

Please apply sunscreen every morning at home and pack some extra (labeled with your camper's name) so your camper can apply more later in the day.

Backpack with Lunch and Water

Please pack lunch (in containers that your child can easily open), snacks, and a filled reusable water container. Water fountains are switched off; contactless water stations will be available.

Mask

Campers should bring a minimum of two masks each day. Camp staff will have replacement masks on hand as needed.

• Parents/guardians must respond to a series of COVID-19 related questions 30 minutes before their camper is on campus each day. All families will be emailed a Google form to complete. Campers may not screen themselves.
• The first time a camper arrives without a submitted screening, they will have their temperature taken and parents/guardians will be called for additional information. If a second screening is missed, parents/guardians will be notified to pick up their child from camp for the day.
• Camp staff will also submit daily screening information before arriving on campus.

Drop Off & Pick Up

• Designated locations will be assigned for drop off and pick up.
• Parents/guardians will need to stay in their cars unless otherwise specified. Camp staff will escort campers from the parking lot in the morning and back to the lot at the end of each day.
• Parents/guardians of Summer Beehive, Honey Hollow Adventure, and Explorers campers will park and walk their camper to and from designated drop-off/pick-up locations.
• Please arrive no more than 15 minutes before your drop-off or pick-up time.

Masks

• All campers and staff must wear a mask on campus at all times. Masks need to have two layers of fabric, should fit well, and fully cover the nose and mouth.
• Masks with valves, gaiters, or bandannas cannot be used.
• Face shields can be used as an optional added layer of protection, but not alone. The CDC has developed mask guidelines, including material and acceptable types.

Handwashing

• Campers and staff will follow a regular schedule of hand washing, including before and after lunch.
• Hand washing stations and sanitizer will be available throughout campus to ensure easy access.

Physical Distancing

• Campers are expected to maintain at least 3 feet distance from one another as much as possible throughout the day.
• Staff are expected to maintain at least 6 feet distance from campers and one another as much as possible throughout the day.
• Campers are expected to remain in their designated areas to reduce mixing of groups.
• Classroom and congregant settings are configured to ensure 6 feet distance between all individuals. Signage and floor markings indicate 6 feet distance in key areas on campus.
• Regular reminders and signage about appropriate distance.

Eating and Drinking

• Lunchtime will be held outside in different locations with physical distancing between each campers. Face masks must be worn until campers are ready to begin eating.
• Campers should bring filled water bottles to school each day.
• No camp provided food or snacks will be available.

• Campers and staff are expected to stay home when ill.
• Anyone with a fever of 100.4F or higher must stay home for at least 24 hours after the fever has broken AND after a COVID-19 test is negative.  
• Campers who become ill on-campus will be escorted to the “isolation room,” which is on the ground floor of The Barn. Parents / guardians will be contacted to arrange a pick-up within the hour.
• The Health Coordinator, contracted through Joffee Emergency Services, will contact families and coordinate pick up.
• More information can be found in Catlin Gabel's Communicable Disease Manual.

• If a community member (employee, camper, parent/guardian) or one of their household members is awaiting COVID-19 test results due to illness or exposure, no one in that household should come to campus.
• If a camper or parent/guardian or a member of their household tests positive for COVID-19, please contact Catlin Gabel Health Coordinator, Casey Reynolds (reynoldsc@catlin.edu). No one from the household should come to campus.

Daily Logs

Equipment

• Campers will not share standard supplies.
