COVID-19 MEASURES
Safety is our top priority
This is an unprecedented and alarming time for many families. While we all want our children to connect again and return to some kind of normalcy in social activities, many are understandably cautious of what this will look like.
The safety and protection of our campers, counselors, staff members, and families was our highest priority while planning our upcoming in-person events. Below are the precautions we are currently planning to implement, and we will continue to monitor state and local authorities’ guidelines for mitigation levels in our area to adjust these precautions as recommended. This may mean schedules and/or safety measures may be evaluated and adjusted in real time, due to new information or events that unfold during the course of our reopen phases. To get the latest news on Camp Fire COVID-19 measures and protocols, please subscribe to our emails.
To report a case of COVID-19 and/or possible exposure to our campers and/or staff, please email info@campfirehok.org.

Expanded communal areas to allow social distancing
Intensified cleaning, disinfection, and ventilation throughout campsite
Limited sharing of facilities, i.e. use of water stations, cafeteria, craft spaces, etc.
