SUMMER CAMP COVID-19 POLICY

Our intention is to run our summer camps (with safety and operational modifications per CDC guidelines) unless GA is enforcing shelter in place at that time. Based on current events, our expectation is that Main Street School of the Arts will be fully open by end of May and running normally all summer.

If there is a sudden pandemic shift during the summer we will certainly adhere to state and federal closures and refund accordingly.

With that said, we are respecting parent’s decisions to not have their kids enrolled in a summer camp series and are accepting cancellations and issuing refunds for early registrants, provided the request comes 2 weeks before the camp start date.

Please scroll to the bottom of this page to review our COVID-19 Safety and Operational Guidelines.

COVID-19 SAFETY AND OPERATIONAL GUIDELINES:

All staff will be wearing masks throughout camp hours. Parents are encouraged to provide masks for their children, if desired.

We will have a closed door policy, parents will be dropping kids off in our lobby and not heading upstairs to the camp areas. We will have a no visitor policy each day to hopefully limit outside exposure.

Temperature checks will occur at camp drop off times. We will be utilizing a touchless forehead thermometer and all campers will be measured at beginning of day. We ask that any family showing infection signs in their household not attend camp. Our staff will be following the same protocol, any staff member showing symptoms or with symptoms in their household will be relieved of duty immediately.

Our maximum camp size is 12 campers per room. This size conforms with State and CDC guidelines

We will have heightened hygiene awareness. We will have four hand-washing stations and campers/staff will be washing hands hourly.

We will not be using our water fountain, campers need to bring ample water and we will also keep a well-stocked supply of bottled water.

Campers will stay with their group for snack and lunch times.

We will not be having our Friday recitals. The performance camps instead will perform for a video presentation, possibly through a Zoom or Facebook live meeting.

These policies will remain dynamic both through the month of May and during the actual camp months. We will be consistently monitoring CDC guidelines and altering procedure accordingly. We really appreciate every family’s patience and willingness to work with us on this. Let’s try to have some fun this summer!
