HEALTH SCREENING & MASK POLICY
Each household is responsible for screening all campers prior to departure (see attached guidelines) – we do not want to share any illness at camp. Any vehicle that arrives at the Studio or Camp carrying passengers with fevers or symptoms of COVID-19 will need to return home immediately. If symptoms arise at camp, parents/guardians will be notified, and will likely need to pick up their camper asap.
 
Masks are required at camp in the Dining Hall, or buildings shared with other groups. On the bus, and in all ECC camp spaces, masking is recommended, but not required. 
 
Please contact me with any questions or concerns – see you at camp!
