COVID-19 Safety Protocols for bg真人 Camps
For Campers
Each morning when you arrive at camp we will be taking your temperature and you will wash your hands before heading into meet your counselor and fellow campers. You, your camp friends and counselors will all be wearing their own special masks. Everyone will be getting their very own face shield to decorate any way you want! You will be getting your very own materials and table for the day all to yourself!For Adults
Camps will have smaller class sizes. Campers will remain together for the duration of the camp day without mixing with other camp groups.
Each camper will get their own set of materials that will be prepped ahead of time.
All campers and staff are required to wear facial coverings that fully cover the mouth, nose, and chin. If your camper is not familiar with wearing a facial covering we ask that you utilize our online camp videos and content so your camper can enjoy camp activities from the comfort of your own home. If you would like a list of activities that we will be doing, please contact the bg真人 Camps Manager at (513) 728-0082 or neskridge@akcricketacademy.com.
Campers will be given their own face shield that they can choose to wear in addition to their facial covering. They will get to decorate their face shield as they get to know their fellow campers on the first day of camp!
In order to social distance and keep our group numbers down, we will not be offering before or after care for bg真人 Camps.
To reduce numbers at the entrance to the building and keep our camp areas safe, drop off and pick up will have assigned times.
You will be asked to conduct a daily health assessment for each camper each morning before arriving at camp. At curb-side check-in camp staff will ask you about the results of your camper’s daily health assessment, take your camper’s temperature, check them into their camp and walk them inside to their group.
