Coyote Camp Summer 2021 (subject to change as guidelines do)

​

Highlights of the safety protocols you’ll see at Camp:

• Teachers and children will be required to wear masks, and only allowed to come to Camp if they are 100% healthy.

• Teachers and children will be screened upon arrival, and temperatures will be taken, or reported and recorded each morning at drop off. If anyone has a temperature of 100.4°F/38°C, or 100.0°F* or higher they must be excluded from Camp. *Because infrared thermometers (the kind we will use) tend to read slightly lower than oral thermometers, SFDPH recommends a single screening threshold of 100 degrees for everyone. If a temperature reads below 96 degrees it will be rechecked.

• Teachers will monitor children’s health throughout the day.

• Parks Plus Creation will not allow any child to come to, or remain at Camp with any cold or flu-like symptoms, included but not limited to:

  • Fever or chills

  • Cough

  • Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing

  • Fatigue

  • Muscle or body aches

  • Headache

  • New loss of taste or smell

  • Sore throat

  • Congestion or runny nose

  • Nausea or vomiting

  • Diarrhea 

• Teachers will assist children in proper hand washing or sanitizing upon arrival, just before departure, before and after mealtime, using the bathroom, or after using a tissue, and as needed throughout the day.

• Teachers will encourage kindness and empathy, and support creative ways for children to show affection for their friends.

• Teachers will encourage children to cover their mouths and keep fingers away from their face.

• Teachers will thoughtfully plan activities, and stagger gatherings and meals to support physical distancing.

• Teachers will provide daily communication about the Camp day via email, so face-to-face adult conversations can be limited.

• Parks Plus Creation will communicate with families if a child, or teacher has COVID-19 infection confirmed by a positive COVID-19 test, and take necessary next steps as recommended by SFDPH.

• Families will be required to communicate if anyone in their household has tested positive for COVID-19, if they have come in contact with someone who tested positive for COVID-19, or if they have traveled in the past 14 days.
