===== Covid protocols =====
 
We will be asking all campers to show a negative covid rapid test upon arrival to camp or prior to arriving. We will also have many additional tests (as well as masks) available at the camp. Most of our time at camp will be spent outside, other than indoor activities like eating, sleeping, and using the bathroom. We encourage all campers to mask indoors when possible. Many of the camp activities outside will take place in an open-air stadium-style seating space, and the rest will be in open outdoor camp in different areas.
 
 
At our last camp, we used a red/yellow/green stickering system on nametags to indicate covid caution levels. We plan to use this again, likely defined as follows:
 
* Red sticker: please mask around me at all times
 
* Yellow sticker: please mask around me indoors
 
* Green sticker: masking according to others' needs
