If you are coming to camp for two weeks, bring at least TWO covid tests – one for each Sunday.
Starting at 2pm, and before you check-in, you will use your own COVID 19 test to confirm with a staff member you do not have COVID 19. Then you may check-in. If you forget to bring your own test, Target is not far away.
If you are staying for both weeks, you need to self-test again on Sunday, July 27.
