COVID-19 Guidelines:




  • All campers and staff will have their temperature checked at the start of each day.


  • Campers will be required to wear masks inside but do not have to while outside.


  • Staff will be required to wear masks at all times.


  • Cohorts of 20 will be formed and will have 2-3 counselors assigned to that specific cohort for the entire two week session. Cohorts will not interact or mix throughout the session.




Regular Camp Day Schedule:
NEW THIS YEAR! We will have four specialists that will plan organized group activities for campers every day! The specialists will include Sports, Art, Science, and Music/Drama. Groups will spend up to 50 minutes with each specialist each day. Additionally campers will have time each day for less structured activities on the playground and ball fields.   

Field Trips and In-Camp Entertainment: 
As of now, Summer Rec (K-5) will go on one field trip per session for a total of three field trips throughout the Summer. This is still tentative however trips are in the process of being finalized. Expected trips include Mystic Aquarium, Ecotarium, and Roger Williams Zoo. We also have plans to bring in several Covid-19 friendly in-camp performers!

Trips to the Town Hall Pool:
As of now, we have plans to have regularly scheduled trips to the town hall pool once a week so every camper will have the opportunity to swim for 30 minutes. We will have certified lifeguards monitoring the pool in addition to the camp counselors supervising swimmers.
