[quote=Anonymous]Hi! I am torn. My camp may open, but many around them have closed. It gives me pause that others didn't feel comfortable and ours may "roll the dice". Seems a bit like an experiment and our kids are the guinea pigs. I do think the risk is very small to kids, and there are risks everywhere. However, I am not sure I want to spend thousands for a subpar experience, where it will be on everyone's mind (the adults) and take the gamble. What are your camps plans if a kids gets it? Of course they leave, then the whole bunk has been exposed? Are they now the bunk to avoid? Do you get a refund? All of this stuff is making me lean towards no but would love to hear other thoughts. YEs, I do know the tons of benefits of camp, outdoors, being unplugged, and mental health (that's why we send them) but I also don't think kids who can't go to 10-20k summer camps will suffer mental health problems, These kids can go outside, play bball, bike, swim maybe, etc, travel? This isn't a debate- just wanted some other perspective. I have one kid w anxiety around health to begin with, who I hesitate to send, and one who has zero anxiety and wants to go but would be ok not going i suppose-- both teens. I could also use the money back (even a portion) lol! THanks![/quote]
