Dear Dancers and Parents,

We are excited to once again offer in-person camps and workshops this summer! All programs will operate in accordance with guidance from the Ulster County Health Department and any recommendations from the Ulster County Health Commissioner.

While COVID-19 restrictions have eased and we are grateful to return to a more normal camp experience, we recognize that illness can still occur. We will continue to monitor the situation closely and maintain thoughtful health practices, including frequent handwashing, sanitizing equipment, and encouraging proper hygiene.

As an added precaution, we ask that each participant bring two unopened, clearly labeled COVID tests. These will only be used if a camper develops symptoms, and any testing will be administered by camp medical personnel.

New This Year – Device-Free Camp Policy
To help create a more connected, present, and distraction-free environment, cell phones and all electronic devices will not be permitted at camp. This includes (but is not limited to) smartphones, tablets, smartwatches, and handheld gaming devices. Our goal is to encourage campers to fully engage in activities, build meaningful friendships, and enjoy their time at camp without the interruptions that personal devices can bring.

Thank you for your cooperation and support. We look forward to a fun, safe, and memorable summer!

MUTUAL COOPERATION

• In order to facilitate a safe and enjoyable camp, we need everyone's cooperation. Everyone will agree to comply with all prevention requirements.
  
  
• We ask that any parents that have a concern that their child has been exposed to someone with COVID refrain from sending their child to camp. Anyone with symptoms of COVID should not come to camp.
  
  
• We all need to be diligent and do our part in order to have a successful camp. All it takes is one infected person to spread the virus and potentially close down the camp. In the event that someone starts to exhibit symptoms, they will be immediately quarantined in a separate area and will need to be picked up by their parents.

Our plans and protocols may need to be adjusted. We will update you on any new developments. As always, the safety of the campers and staff are out primary concern.

Thank-you for your understanding and cooperation.

-Ania Bohachevsky Lonkevych
