The COVID-19 vaccine has been added to the list of required immunizations. We are adhering with the CDC's definition of fully vaccinated.
We are assigning check- times this year. You will receive an email in the week before your camper’s arrival with detailed information.
A pre-camp schedule will be sent to every camper two weeks prior to their session. All campers are also tested during the check-in process. During the session, symptomatic campers will be tested.
Any individual testing positive while at camp must be picked up immediately. This is why emergency contacts must be available to pick up your child. Cabin mates of positive campers will be tested daily and “pod” together for three days while participating in camp activities.
Masks are worn for the first several days in the Dining Hall until a “community” is formed. If a positive case occurs in camp masks will be used in large group and indoor situations until camp is deemed “Covid-free” again.
We will follow CDC and NH DHHS guidelines. We anticipate the following:
One of the keys to minimizing the potential spread of COVID-19 throughout our full Camp community is the mindful separation of those who do not share a living space.
We will dine outside when weather permits. In inclement weather we will dine inside on a staggered schedule, in smaller groups to ensure social distancing.
We are growing our summer nursing staff for this summer.
Campers who take medications will utilize a new pre-packaged system.
We have contracted with an engineer to assess indoor spaces and are modifying as needed. This will include additional ventilation, fans, capacity, etc. We plan to do as much outside as possible.
Current recommendations and guidance requires: Every camper be monitored for COVID symptoms (temperature, cough, runny nose, headache, etc.) for 7 days prior to arriving at Camp.
We will increase sanitation at Camp and have purchased electrostatic foggers and sanitation equipment.
All campers must have a local emergency contact within a reasonable drive of Camp who is available to pick up your child if necessary.
Camper packages are typically screened for food/candy. This is to help control rodents in our cabins. More details to come.
We know that our plans for the summer including the daily schedule will change based on recommendations and guidelines at the time.
We will restrict all non-essential visitors during your child’s Camp session.
Campers will not be able to come and go during their session. If a camper needs to be picked up for any reason they will not be able to return.

The event was organized by Matt Comstock. If you think you can take down the triumphant quartet, Comstock encourages anyone
I love a hello. A howdy. A sup. A how’s it going. Hellos are easy. If it’s been a long

In order for our organization to continue serving you, your families, our campers, and future Conistonians, we need your help reducing our potential $1.3M loss. If you’re in a position to do so we hope you will choose to help. Every gift has an impact. Every donation makes that projected loss smaller.
Current recommendations and guidance requires: Every camper be monitored for COVID symptoms (temperature, cough, runny nose, headache, etc.) for 7 days prior to arriving at Camp.
To limit the amount of people in Camp, families will all receive a check-in time to drop off their child/children.
Current recommendations and guidance requires: Unvaccinated campers must arrive with a negative test, Camp will conduct a test on check in day for all campers, and campers will be tested again within 7 days of arriving at Camp.
