If you think you may have COVID while at camp, you follow these steps:

• • • • • • Put on an N95 or KN95 mask and go to your living space as soon as you notice symptoms
          • Notify the camp office (call camp at 218-335-2692, or send a runner)
          • Take a COVID test (please bring your own if able)
          • Mask if you need to go indoors or are around others on your way home
          • If you test positive or have persistent symptoms…
            • Pack your belongings and prepare to leave (with roommates, if applicable)
            • A masked staff member will take you in a boat to the marina as soon as possible
            • Avoid going into businesses as you travel. Staff can pack you a bag lunch (just ask!). Mask if you need to go indoors or are around others on your way home

Camp has three models that we can switch between based on different risk factors. The models change how much we need to mask and socially distance. At camp, wearing a mask and/or social distancing are always welcome.

High Caution Model
We might use this if there’s a high incidence of covid going around our local communities or the camp community, and if there are a lot of campers at higher risk for covid.

• • • • • • Masking indoors is required, except for in assigned living spaces and while eating
          • Masking or social distancing outdoors is highly recommended
          • Eat outdoors except in bad weather (spread out in dining hall and lodge during bad weather)
          • Eat with cabin/tenter group
          • Living spaces have designated shower spaces

Moderate Caution Model
We might use this if there’s a moderate incidence of covid going around our local communities or the camp community, and if there are some campers at higher risk for covid.

• • • • • • Masking or social distancing indoors is required, except for in assigned living spaces and while eating
          • Eating outdoors is encouraged
          • Eating with cabin/tenter groups is encouraged, especially indoors

Low Caution Model
We might use this if there’s a low incidence of covid going around our local communities or the camp community, and if there are few or no campers at higher risk for covid.

• • • • • • Masking and social distancing are optional in all settings
          • Eating outdoors is encouraged
