Several camps have already said they will be closed this summer but most are deferring any final decision until the next 2 weeks when the federal and state governments issues their new guidelines on social distancing and group activities. Even if they do reopen, some parents are likely to keep their kids at home this summer in an abundance of caution. The good news is that the incidence of infection is very low for younger kids and they generally seem to bounce back quickly. However, as any parent knows, it is very difficult to impose public health guidelines when they are under constant supervision, much less when they are with the chevrah in camp.
