Covid-19 Plan

Page 2: 2021 Summer

Calvary Road Christian School safely operated during the 2020-2021 school year with minimal disruptions. Using practices andstrategies we deployed during the school year, we intend to openour summer camp this coming summer. Our top priority is thehealth and safety of our campers, staff and their families.

We recognize, however, that no level of preparation allows us toguarantee that our day camp will remain free from the implicationsof COVID-19, but we are confident in our ability to run ourprograms in a safe and meaningful way and to respond swiftly andintentionally when necessary to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

This guide is intended as a living document and will be periodically updated in orderto ensure the most current guidelines are in place.

Creating a safe and stable environment free of COVID -19 is atop priority for us. Doing so requires our families to be ourpartners in participating in pre-camp screening protocols. Weworked hard in our current school program to build sharedaccountability amongst our staff and families to keep oneanother safe. If we work together, we will limit the risks andmaintain a culture of compliance.

PoolThis year, Camp Crusader has made the decision to not take our GroupB and Group C Campers to the pool. (Group A always stays onproperty.) This decision reflects the current COVID challenges and thepotential risks. The Camp leadership is planning water activities oncampus to ensure a wacky, wet time is had by all campers.

Field TripsTypically, Group B & C Campers go on one field trip per week in addition tothe pool. This summer we will be limiting our off-site trips. We areconfident we can provide the same excitement by bringing in differentactivities and events to make an impression that will last for a lifetime.
