Day Camp Safety during the COVID-19 Epidemic

Protecting our campers, staff, and guests at Camp Miakonda is our highest priority. Thank you for trusting in our processes to help protect your loved ones.

Our Camp Miakonda safety protocols are based on the requirements and recommendations of BSA National, Ohio Department of Health, and Lucas County Department of Health. As of this writing, masks are no longer required at all Erie Shores Council Camps and Facilities. Individuals still desiring to wear a mask are welcome to do so. Remember that risk still exists everywhere; our goals include managing those risks in order to serve our campers and their families in the safest manner possible.

*These procedures are subject to change. All safety protocols will be decided by the CDC management team and Erie Shores Council health guidelines.

Repeater Dens:
We now have a special “repeater Den.” This gives Campers who are attending multiple weeks a chance to do new and different activities while still visiting all their favorites too! These Dens are multi-level, and if we have enough Campers, we will have a Tiger/Wolf/Bear Repeater Den and a Webelos/ AOL Repeater Den. Some of last year’s activities include making and racing cardboard boats in STEM, cooking in Scout skills, free swim in Aquatics, and more! PLEASE NOTE: Repeater dens are an option, but if a Camper would rather stay in their rank specific Den because a friend is attending that week or any reason, that is an option as well, but they will be doing some activities they have done before.

Health Forms:
Everyone, both youth, and adult, who attends or participates in Day Camp is REQUIRED to submit a Boy Scouts of America Annual Health and Medical Record on file by the Monday morning of their selected Day Camp session. For Day Camp, Parts A and B are required. A copy of the BSA Annual Health and Medical Form may be attained by visiting the Scout office or online here.

Camperships:
Financial assistance is available for all Erie Shores Council Scouts that are unable to financially pay for the summer camp programs such as Day Camp. If you have such a Scout in your Pack, please complete the online Campership application by April 1. This program may cover up to 50% of the Scout’s camp fee. The Campership Application can be found on our website at www.erieshorescouncil.org/ESCCS.

Trading Post:
At our Trading Post, Cub Scouts may purchase drinks, candy, and camp souvenirs.

Lunch:
 Lunch is included in the registration fees! 

Volunteers Needed:
Parents, grandparents, older siblings, and other adult volunteers are welcome to be part of Day Camp. All volunteers need to be registered with the Program Assistant and complete youth protection training. If volunteers are not a parent or legal guardian, they will need to speak with the camp administration. An Adult Volunteer Form must be completed along with BSA Annual Health & Medical Record, Parts A & B (A Tetanus immunization is required and must have been received within the last 10 years.).  A BSA Annual Health and Medical Form may be attained by visiting the Scout office or online here. Volunteers will need to check-in at the camp office daily.  All volunteers will receive lunch, a t-shirt, and a camp patch.

 **All youth entering 1st grade will need an adult partner with them each day of camp.**

Family Night:
Family members are invited to come and enjoy camp with their Camper by attending Family Night on Thursday evenings after Day Camp.  Walk around camp with your Camper and let them guide you to their favorite areas. Each program will have a special activity you can do with your Camper
