CORONA VIRUS UPDATE

OUR CAMPS WILL FOLLOW NCDHHS, CDC AND LOCAL GUIDELINES TO ENSURE

OUR CAMPERS AND STAFF ARE AS SAFE AS POSSIBLE.

 

What to expect for Summer Day Camp 

Check-in/ Pick-up procedure:

•    Camp hours are 7:30 am- 6 pm

•    Check- in and pick- up will be outside in the back of the building; you will be greeted by a camp staff member. Please have your child remain in the car until you are greeted by a staff member. 

•    You will be asked to present valid ID; the person must be on the list giving permission to drop off or pick up. PLEASE MAKE SURE TO HAVE ID AND MAKE SURE EVERYONE ALLOWED IS ON YOUR LIST!

•    If your child has been sick, please keep them home.

•    We ask the parents/ guardians please do not enter the building.

What to bring:

   

•    A blanket for nap/quiet time

•    An extra pair of clothes (not always needed but good to have)

•    Swim suit, towel and flip flops

•    Something for quiet time: a book or magazine

•    A reusable water bottle

What to wear: 

•    Comfortable clothes for inside or outside

•    Closed-toe shoes



Medications:

•    Please submit the attached form for any necessary medications needed to be taken. If there are any allergies; please specify on this form as well.  All medicine coming into the YMCA needs to be labeled with the child’s name and dosage information. Medicine cannot be given otherwise.

Please return this either by email to christineb@henfamymca.org or bring them to camp.

  **Please note that if at any time during the day, if any child presents symptoms of being sick they will immediately be placed in quarantine with their camp leader. We will contact the parent or guardian and immediate collection is required. They will then need a doctor's note before being allowed to return. The staff member will also then go into self-quarantine to assure everyone’s safety. At that time a deep clean and sterilization will also be completed.

Field Trips:

•    Field trips will be scheduled throughout the summer sessions.  We will continue to follow CDC, state and local health and safety guidelines.  

Safety Measures:

•  YMCA Summer Day Camp Counselors are required to wear mask inside and outside when social distancing cannot be maintained. 

•    Campers are required to wear a face covering. 

•    All activities, crafts and games will include proper social distancing. 

Kids need summer camp more now than ever and it is our goal to make each summer day a great one!  If you have any other questions or concerns please feel free to contact me at any time by email or at the YMCA at 252-438-2144
