Camper Safety: Covid
1. Campers are encouraged but not required to be vaccinated in order to participate in CYOB. However, campers who show symptoms of Covid-19 will be sent home to help prevent potential community spread. Families are required to self-screen for Covid before arriving at camp each day.
2. Campers will be encouraged to mask when indoors. Child-size masks will be available if needed.
3. Campers will be assigned to meal pods or cohorts so that they eat with the same small groups of kids each day.
Please note that campers will be required to bring their own nut-free lunches each day as well as a labelled water bottle and indoor shoes.
