COVID-19 Information for Volunteers
Our medical team works hard every year to make camp as safe as possible for all our campers and volunteers. They will continue to monitor current public health issues and we will update our safety protocols as is appropriate.
To minimize risks related to COVID-19 and other respiratory illnesses, Okizu is continuing to ask all participants to self-assess wellness and not attend events if anyone in the household or family is feeling ill. Every program will require a rapid COVID swab test to be performed in the parking area on every attendee before entering Camp.
**** All information presented above is subject to change with advice from our Medical Advisory Committee as the climate of COVID-19 is constantly changing. Okizu always prioritizes the safety of our campers and staff, and we will continue to do so moving forward.*****
