Girl Scout Camp

Safety is our top priority at Camp Amity Acres and Camp Sacajawea. We have made accommodations to ensure the health and well-being of all campers, families and staff while upholding our standard of quality care and outdoor fun! We know our children need camp more than ever for their physical, emotional and psychological well-being. We are the camp for you, and we thank you for choosing us.

• We had a successful, COVID-free 2020 summer season!
• Camp staff have completed courses, webinars and classes offered from the American Camp Association and other organizations about how to keep our campers safe this summer.
• Limited sized units of up to 20 campers optimize social distancing practices while keeping quality fun!
• Unit Leaders are equipped with hand sanitizer, sanitizing wipes, and a mask to help mitigate risk. They have been trained on how and when to use these supplies.
• Specialists utilize face shields and masks when instructing campers within 6-feet.
• A group (unit) will travel together for their activities and stay together all week and will not co-mingle with other units. Campers will sanitize their hands after each activity.
• All equipment will be sanitized after each use.
• Each unit will hold their own flag ceremony at their unit.
• Drop-off is carpool-line style. Upon arrival, we ask families to complete a brief health survey and take temperatures of campers. Campers will sanitize their hands before they enter camp.
• Restrooms are equipped with cans of disinfectant and sanitizing wipes are at each restroom door so counselors can spray toilet handles, door handles and faucets.
• Pick-up is structured so adults will stay in their cars and have their campers brought to them.
• To ensure the safety of all campers, we ask that you practice safe social distancing while away from camp, use face-coverings and be aware of where you go.
• If your camper is ill or injured and needs to be sent home, you will be called and are required to make arrangements for your child to be picked up in a reasonable amount of time.
• If a child is ill, shows flu-like symptoms, has a fever or is vomiting, the camper MUST be picked up and cannot return to camp until she/he is symptom-free for 72 hours without medication.
