One of the first questions the CDC suggests camps ask is if they are 'able to screen children and employees upon arrival for symptoms and history of exposure.'
Social distancing would be encouraged and mixing between groups discouraged. Staggered schedules and drops offs are suggested where feasible.
The CDC recommends activities be"adjusted" to limit sharing of toys, belongings, supplies and equipment. In April, Tom Rosenberg, president and CEO of the American Camp Association, told"GMA" that whether or not children can go to camp this summer may depend on where the camp is located."So we are trying to look ahead and understand with the help of the CDC [U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention] and the state and local public health authorities, what needs to be true this summer in order for camps to operate safely," he said.
Rhode Island is the most recent state to say summer camps will be open. Gov. Gina Raimondo said Thursday that the state would target an opening camp date of June 29. Campers, she said, would be organized into"pods" of roughly 10 children and will remain consistent throughout the camp experience. There would be limited interaction with other"pods.
