6/8/2020

Updated 3/25/2021

For the 2021 camp season Camp Galilee will adhere to the following COVID-19 Procedures.
 ‌

‌Prior‌ ‌to‌ ‌Arrival‌ ‌at‌ ‌Camp‌ ‌
Parents‌ ‌will review‌ ‌the‌ ‌COVID-19‌ ‌Policy‌ ‌and‌ ‌sign‌ ‌a‌ ‌COVID-19‌ ‌Waiver‌ ‌which is in the registration paperwork on CampDoc.‌  ‌

 ‌
During‌ ‌Camp‌ ‌
Upon‌ ‌Arrival/Check-In‌
  1. ‌We‌ ‌will‌ ‌check‌ ‌the‌ ‌temperatures‌ ‌of‌ ‌every‌ ‌staff,‌ ‌camper,‌ ‌and‌ ‌family‌ ‌member‌ ‌who‌ ‌enters‌ ‌camp‌.‌ ‌This‌ ‌will‌ ‌be‌ ‌done‌ ‌using‌ ‌a‌ ‌non-contact‌ ‌thermometer‌ ‌before‌ ‌leaving‌ ‌any‌ ‌vehicles.‌ ‌Campers‌ ‌will‌ ‌not‌ ‌be‌ ‌able‌ ‌to‌ ‌attend‌ ‌camp‌ ‌if‌ ‌they,‌ ‌or‌ ‌anyone‌ ‌within‌ ‌their‌ ‌vehicle,‌ ‌has‌ ‌a‌ ‌fever.‌ ‌  

Dining‌ ‌Hall‌‌
  1. Campers‌ ‌will‌ ‌enter‌ ‌the‌ ‌dining‌ ‌hall‌ ‌with‌ ‌their‌ ‌cabin‌ ‌group.‌ ‌
  2. ‌Everyone‌ ‌will‌ ‌wash‌ ‌their‌ ‌hands‌ ‌as‌ ‌they‌ ‌enter‌ ‌the‌ ‌dining‌ ‌hall.‌ ‌
  3. ‌Cabin‌ ‌groups‌ ‌will‌ ‌sit‌ ‌together‌ ‌during‌ ‌meals.‌ ‌
  4. All‌ ‌table‌ ‌utensils‌ ‌and‌ ‌food‌ ‌will‌ ‌be‌ ‌distributed‌ ‌to‌ ‌campers‌ ‌by‌ ‌counselors.‌ ‌ ‌
  5. ‌All‌ ‌tables,‌ ‌counters,‌ ‌and‌ ‌regularly‌ ‌touched‌ ‌surfaces‌ ‌will‌ ‌be‌ ‌disinfected‌ ‌after‌ ‌every‌ ‌meal.‌ ‌
  6. ‌Bathrooms‌ ‌in‌ ‌the‌ ‌dining‌ ‌hall‌ ‌will‌ ‌be‌ ‌cleaned‌ frequently.‌ 
 
Health‌ ‌Lodge‌‌
 ‌While‌ ‌camp‌ ‌offers‌ ‌a‌ ‌well‌ ‌equipped‌ ‌and‌ ‌modern‌ ‌health‌ ‌lodge‌ ‌with‌ ‌multiple‌ ‌rooms‌ ‌for‌ ‌isolating‌ ‌sick‌ ‌
campers,‌ ‌camp‌ ‌is‌ ‌not‌ ‌prepared‌ ‌to‌ ‌house‌ ‌campers‌ ‌or‌ ‌staff‌ ‌who‌ ‌show‌ ‌symptoms‌ ‌of‌ ‌COVID-19.‌ ‌Therefore,‌ ‌

 ‌
  1. The‌ ‌Health‌ ‌Lodge‌ ‌team‌ ‌will‌ ‌take‌ ‌the‌ ‌temperature‌ ‌of‌ ‌everyone‌ ‌who‌ ‌enters‌ ‌the‌ ‌lodge.‌ ‌
  2. ‌Anyone‌ ‌with‌ ‌a‌ ‌fever‌ ‌will‌ ‌be‌ ‌asked‌ ‌to‌ ‌wear‌ ‌a‌ ‌face‌ ‌mask,‌ ‌given‌ ‌a‌ ‌cool‌ ‌drink,‌ ‌moved‌ ‌into‌ ‌a‌ ‌private‌ ‌room,‌ ‌given‌ ‌time‌ ‌to‌ ‌lay‌ ‌down,‌ ‌cool‌ ‌off‌ ‌and‌ ‌rest,‌ ‌in‌ ‌order‌ ‌to‌ ‌determine‌ ‌if‌ ‌the‌ ‌fever‌ ‌could‌ ‌have‌ ‌occurred‌ ‌for‌ ‌reasons‌ ‌other‌ ‌than‌ ‌illness‌ ‌(e.g.‌ ‌outside‌ ‌heat‌ ‌or‌ ‌exercise).‌ ‌If,‌ ‌after‌ ‌re-evaluation,‌ ‌the‌ ‌fever‌ ‌is‌ ‌still‌ ‌present,‌ ‌and‌ ‌we‌ ‌don’t‌ ‌have‌ ‌the‌ ‌ability‌ ‌to‌ ‌rule‌ ‌out‌ ‌COVID-19‌ ‌that‌ ‌individual‌ ‌will‌ ‌need‌ ‌to‌ ‌be‌ ‌picked‌ ‌up‌ ‌by‌ ‌a‌ ‌parent/guardian.‌ ‌
  3. ‌The‌ ‌Health‌ ‌Lodge‌ ‌will‌ ‌be‌ ‌disinfected‌ ‌on‌ ‌a‌ ‌continual‌ ‌basis.‌ ‌

Cabins‌
  1. ‌All‌ ‌commonly‌ ‌touched‌ ‌surfaces‌ ‌will‌ ‌be‌ kept sanitized.‌ ‌
  2. ‌Disinfectants‌/Sanitizers ‌will‌ ‌be‌ ‌available‌ ‌in‌ ‌every‌ ‌cabin.‌ ‌
  3. ‌Windows‌ ‌will‌ ‌be‌ ‌open‌ ‌as‌ ‌much‌ ‌as‌ ‌possible‌ ‌to‌ ‌encourage‌ ‌airflow.‌ ‌

Bath‌ ‌Houses‌‌
  1. ‌Campers‌ ‌will‌ ‌follow‌ ‌a‌ ‌nightly,‌ ‌shower‌ ‌schedule‌ ‌and‌ ‌will‌ ‌only‌ ‌shower‌ ‌when‌ ‌their‌ ‌cabin‌ ‌is‌ ‌showering.‌ 
  2. ‌Bathrooms‌ ‌and‌ ‌showers‌ ‌will‌ ‌be‌ ‌disinfected‌.‌ ‌
  3. ‌Disinfectants‌/Sanitizers ‌will‌ ‌be‌ ‌available‌ ‌in‌ ‌every‌ ‌bathhouse.‌ ‌

Camp-wide‌ ‌Sanitation‌‌
  1. ‌Camp‌ ‌staff‌ ‌will‌ ‌have‌ ‌continual‌ ‌access‌ ‌to‌ ‌cleaning‌ ‌and‌ ‌disinfecting‌ ‌supplies‌ ‌at‌ ‌all‌ ‌times,‌ ‌and‌ ‌will‌ ‌be‌ ‌available‌ ‌at‌ ‌multiple‌ ‌locations.‌ ‌
  2. ‌Tables,‌ ‌shared‌ ‌surfaces,‌ ‌and‌ ‌all‌ ‌commonly‌ ‌used‌ ‌areas‌ ‌will‌ ‌be‌ ‌disinfected‌.‌ ‌
 ‌
Parent‌ ‌Notification‌
  1. Parents‌ ‌will‌ ‌be‌ ‌notified‌‌ ‌if‌ ‌their‌ ‌child‌ ‌develops‌ ‌an‌ ‌unexplained‌ ‌fever‌ ‌or‌ ‌COVID-like‌ ‌symptoms.‌ ‌ ‌
  2. ‌Parents‌ ‌will‌ ‌be‌ ‌notified‌ ‌on‌ ‌camp‌ ‌departure‌ ‌day‌ ‌if‌ ‌anyone‌ ‌at‌ ‌camp‌ ‌left‌ ‌early‌ ‌due‌ ‌to‌ ‌illness.‌ ‌
