2021 Summer COVID Guidelines
June 4, 2021
New COVID-19 guidance has recently been given by the Minnesota Department of Health, along with recommendations from the CDC. Although there are still some COVID protocols remaining in place for us to operate, the new guidance allows for mask-free camping and opens Camp back up to full capacity. Woo Hoo! We are committed to continuing to operate in a way that promotes health for our guests and honors the guidance from the MN Health Department. Please read below for answers to specific COVID related questions pertaining to summer youth camps, family programs, and rental retreats.
