Hello Everyone! We're excited to have y'all with us.
DeVanee Lasley
Hey everyone DeVanee Lasley from University of Missouri St Louis
Michael Pappan
Exploring one day options. Currently moving as scheduled.
Richelle Williams
we are a go right now
Crystal Durham
we are a go right now, but it doesn't seem likely that we will be able to begin camp June 1st as planned
Giancarlo Provo
I don't see them
Anne Marie Skylis
also exploring, but waiting 2-3 weeks to hear from University administration
ckscott
We are continue to plan the camp, but expected to reduce if needed.
Kathryn Hutchings
Santa Clara University - weplan to re-evaluate on May 1. We may cancel first session
Abby Van Note
What are you considerations for go / no go?
Cindy Klatt
right now we are a go.
Perry Karnofsky
Hi everyone - Perry Karnofsky from McGill - May 1 is our decision date
Marissa Engel
deciding whether or not rushing to hire and train for partial summer is worth the time and cost to do it. exploring virtual options and looking at what liability and options are.
Noah Mass
as of right now we are a go
Jamaica Cannon
Our earliest camps in May first week in June have been rescheduled to end of July/August. Looking at mini camps in August/Fall
Jerrell Kelly
We're planning both as normal and with reduced offerings
Jaclyn Gidley
Biggest question right now is trying to figure out how to recruit and train staff virtually
Janice DeMonsi
Those that canceled was it you or your administration that said no go
nick pangio
we are as planned until the university makes the call by the end of next week. Big decisions will be based on staffing
Bill Moorman
We are modifying.
Shanea Allen
we are a go and have been instructed to continue forward with hiring process however should be prepared for virtual offerings summer 1 with potential delayed start date
Richelle Williams
we don't start until june 22nd so we are staying the course for now
DeVanee Lasley
We are modifying as well
Jerrell Kelly
We are holding off on our registration but if we open it, we aren't taking deposits to avoid needing to refund
Jamaica Cannon
We are thinking about real time testing in terms of taking temps, self notifying if previously sick.
Domonique Sak
Plan ABCD ready for action
Crystal Durham
NAU - we halted all registration while the Rec Center is closed and promised 100% refunds if we cancel a week of camp that they are registered for
nick pangio
We have updated our refund policy. All summer is already sold out.
Shan Paracka
we have currently suspended registration, we are accepting them but not charging anyone until we know what weeks we will be running
Jean Holt
Our University President sent an email out today that all summer school classes will be online. That has us no-go for on-campus camp. We had already approached our partners about virtual camps.
Shanea Allen
also holding off on registration until closer to summer time
Jordan Garcia
We are still waiting on opening registration until we have a confirmed "yes we can operate camp this summer"
Brian Stelzer
Currently normal, but plan would be to modify as things change (wait & see) with an if x happens, we'll do y.
Clayton Sheehan
Also holding.
Corrine Pruett
WVU implemented a $0 down payment option
Demont Oliver
We closed registration , until we know if we can have camps
Michael Pappan
Still waiting for a provost decision
Kenton Elworth
Delaying registration and promotion until we hear more. If we open we wont take deposits unless we can guarantee we wont be effected by shelter in place order being extended
Jaclyn Gidley
We opened registration the week before the chaos hit, so we’ve not made any changes at this time. Just trying to figure out the personnel aspect.
Richelle Williams
open and no changes
Anne Marie Skylis
also doing a $0 down - asking them to pay a week in advance (if operational)
Klee Sellers
Ours has been cancelled
Kenton Elworth
we are also discussing going with an interest form rather than actual sign-ups
Jean Holt
We had launched registrations and will need to look at how much the virtual camps will cost. Of course, not as much as traditional camps
Bill Moorman
We are nervous about state stay at home orders…CO is on a stay at home until April 30th.
Brian Stelzer
Nebraska is/was at 65% of our camp capacity when we closed in mid-march.
Sarah Schrenk
Our university announced today that all summer academics will be online only, but hasn't made any decisions about services (Rec, library, student center, etc). Registration is open and if we cancel those who are already registered will get a full refund. Some people registered May 1.
Janice DeMonsi
We start camp June 22 so we are thinking about canceling that and hoping to kick off in July with our last 5 sessions
Sarah Schrenk
*make that March 1
Jeremy Hamlett
In the case of virtual camps, how would payments look like?
Michael Pappan
Has anyone explored smaller registration caps i.e. fitting the 10 person gathering rule?
Christopher Ballard
We are looking to split camp by age and have half kids in one area and the other half in another to decrease the amount of kids together at one time.
Shanea Allen
we are considering limiting camp capacities
Kayode Lewis
Still waiting on upper administration on whether to make to cancel
we are taking registrations as usual and informed parents they will receive a refund if cancelled.
Janice DeMonsi
We have not explored smaller numbers - we can not be in our facilities they are closed so no option for that we are in California
Shanea Allen
we know all classes will be remote so now have the space to also spread out throughout campus
nick pangio
At ohio state we are looking at just doing july and august as osu put a hiring freeze through June 30. if we can keep staff. OSU just moved all classes online for the summer so staffing is our big issue at this time
Venessa Fiedler
We are holding tight until the end of April to make any big decisions/adjustments while creating some contingency planning in the interim. Higher ups may be making the decision for us sooner than that, though. Still accepting enrollments.
Crystal Durham
our director has suggested limiting camp groups to max 8 campers with one counselor. I'm worried about safety with only one counselor. Anyone in a similar situation?
Kristen Pettis Imbimbo
upper leadership cancelled all summer camps at Rutgers university
Kristen Pettis Imbimbo
I’m curious how are people are conducting virtual camp?
Abby Van Note
We'll chat about virtual camps near the end
Dana Lopez
hiring freeze for Wake Forest univ as well
Jamaica Cannon
WashU is on a hiring freeze until June 1st
Matt Urbanczyk
Want to know more about how people are conducting virtual camp.
Domonique Sak
ACA says 1 adult to 8 campers in day camps. I say no because of bathrooms/water/incident
Crystal Durham
sorry I had to relocate because my fiance is also on a call right now
Jaclyn Gidley
We always have 2 counselors per group to avoid 1 counselor being in charge of a group.
Corrine Pruett
WVU has a cap of 60 campers/week due to day care licensure and uses a 8:1 ratio.
Janice DeMonsi
I would say no - you need two counselors
Anne Marie Skylis
agreed - we try not to have single staff members in groups
Crystal Durham
thank you!
Jeremy Hamlett
Also need to consider for ACA accredited camps that the ratio for 4-5 year olds are 6/1.
nick pangio
We do not allow single staff at OSU. mainly locker rooms
Dana Lopez
we are also looking at our full time staff being “all on deck” considering our hiring situation
Jaclyn Gidley
If we end up canceling due to COVID-19 we would give everyone who has registered a 100% refund.
Bill Moorman
Trying to offer credit vs refund if possible.
nick pangio
OSU has said that if parents want out because of COVID we will honor a full refund
nick pangio
even if we run camp
Jamaica Cannon
Our summer 2020 camps are currently scheduled to proceed as planned. We are working through a number of considerations and will provide additional information as it is available. If it is determined that our camps should be canceled, we will issue campers a full refund, minus a small card processing fee. When making travel plans we encourage you to book refundable hotels and flights or use Southwest Airlines. If you have questions or concerns please contact us.
Crystal Durham
we are giving 100% refunds if we cancel a week due to COVID19
Sarah Schrenk
If we cancel due to COVID-19 we will offer a full refund.
Janice DeMonsi
We will give 100% most likely if we have to cancel due to covid - maybe minus the software fees
Brian Stelzer
Nebraska has stated that if we (the University) cancel a session all deposits and payments will be fully refunded.
DeVanee Lasley
at UMSL if we end up cancelling we will give a 100% refund back to parents
Alison Fisher
We are holding off on opening registration as our registration program charges us a 2% cancellation fee on all cancellations
Jeremy Hamlett
Full refund if camp doesn't happen or if parents opt out
Marissa Engel
we had the thought that if we were to run, refunds would only be given if we cancel. if parents cancel there would not be a refund.
Jean Holt
If we cancel a camp we offer 100% refund, would do the same in this case.
Natalie Hiller-claridge
Right now we are waiting for our university to decide. If I have emails or calls about it I tell them to wait to register for now. However, we take a lot of campers, so we don’t fill early
Venessa Fiedler
If you use Activenet as a registration system, make sure you are aware of their new refund policy
Kenton Elworth
We are offering credits as refunds, but if they press or wish for a full refund it will be given
Venessa Fiedler
It may have a big impact on how refunds are processed for your program
Jeremy Hamlett
Considering keeping deposit to hold for next summer with priority registration if parents want to do that
Janice DeMonsi
We would use our normal refund process for the pulling of a camp registration - which is a %
Jaclyn Gidley
If parent/guardian wants to refund before we announce (official date is May 10th) they receive full refund. After May 10th is 90% refund.
Perry Karnofsky
McGill - Quebec provincial laws require us to issue a full refund for cancellation prior to the start of camp - regardless of covid19 anyway
Cindy Klatt UNI
If cancel 100%refund.
Crystal Durham
traditionally we do not offer refunds for parents cancelling, but have the flexibility to give a percentage refund depending on the situation; usually we settle on 50%
Jamaica Cannon
We aren't advertising that but we would give a refund
Bill Moorman
If a parent wants out, due to COVID-19, we would offer a full credit, or a partial refund depending on how close they are to the date of the camp.
DeVanee Lasley
At UMSL if you cancel within a week before the start of a camp week they will get 50% back. we keep the deposit.
Jean Holt
I had a parent cancel her 2 daughters due to conflict with another camp and we kept the deposit.
Bill Moorman
Can we talk about staff recruitment and training?
Jaclyn Gidley
Yes @Bill ^
Bill Moorman
YAAAAAS
Jean Holt
Our K-12 schools are closed for the remainder of the year. Talk that they will start early next year and may finish late next year.
Richelle Williams
everything is pushed back until may
Venessa Fiedler
Reach back out to past staff who may have not come back due to internships, study abroads, etc...their plans may have changed and they're now looking for summer employment
Ashley Marsh
UCSB is currently doing online Zoom interviews with the hopes of remaining open. We have not canceled camps or closed registration for the time being. No direction from campus yet.
Angela Caringella
All applications are submitted through online portal - I have it open for now and am doing virtual interviews.
Crystal Durham
we aren't on a hiring freeze, but I'm hesitant to hire counselors not knowing when we will start camp - especially because we might start a month later than planned
Marissa Engel
we are choosing to if we do virtual camp we would only use staff that are prior camp workers and already on staff in other departments rather than hiring anyone.
Kenton Elworth
We have been asked to change our training to virtual and then if we get the go, we will have 2 days to do in person trainings which must include their CPR training
Natalie Hiller-claridge
We are conducting interviews, but letting them know their jobs are not guaranteed
Janice DeMonsi
We are still interviewing but just asked HR how they will do hiring paperwork - if they can not do the I-9's in their office....if they have not determined this we can not train until it is done - the hope was to do virtual training but we may need to pause and delay camp due to staff not trained and week one will be training & hiring all at once
Sean Graninger
Oregon - On a hiring freeze but our application is still open and we are accepting those still. Will probably be doing zoom or phone interviews in May
nick pangio
we are still doing virtual interviews. Also at OSU we have created an incentive program for staff to recruit other staff
Jeff Heiser
At UC Davis in California, we are still able to hire however background checks are not being processed, either in person or from our online vendor. Even if we open up campus in late May/June, we are concerned about getting staff background checks processed in time.
Christopher Ballard
We can't get background checks done because we provide them on campus which is closed. We are conducting interviews but can't hire anyone currently even though we plan to open as normal. and we can't hold trainings until people are hired, so there are a lot of things in the way of starting on time.
Andrew Hoffer
I am conducting Zoom Group interviews, one with a group of previous staff, and another with new employees. Also planning on creating a zoom meet and greet with hires because we will be offer to offer jobs to students.
DeVanee Lasley
UMSL is currently conducting interviews via zoom. We have a lot of students who want to return from last year. We have been keeping all applicants updated as the dates have changed for camp.
Venessa Fiedler
Reach out to departments who may be looking for new practicum/internship opportunities for their staff as traditional sites may not be operating
Domonique Sak
we were in the middle of interviews when we were told to transition remotely. zoom interviews now, being transparent about the plans in motion. also being clear about the time commitment, dates of training, end date no matter what
Kathryn Hutchings
Although students cannot work at this time, we are still planning on hiring. We are interviewing with potential camp staff via zoom meetings with pro staff.
Andrew Hoffer
<3 virtualized I9
Jeff Heiser
Staff training is all online.
Nora Osei
Princeton has completed conducting counselor interviews, but we shared with the applicants that there is a chance that camp may be cancelled due to COVID19. As now, we are proceeding as normal until told differently.
Crystal Durham
how are you working on building camaraderie with your staff when it's virtual?
Natalie Hiller-claridge
I was on an ACA forum before this. The lawyer says to tell the potential employe they are an “At Will Employee”
Janice DeMonsi
Depends when camp starts.....if it is right before that we open then all but CPR will be virtual
Dana Lopez
our job posting was pulled until we can hire......we had 19 people apply 🤦♀️
Ashley Marsh
I’d be interested in the camaraderie piece too
Jean Holt
was anyone on the ACA call yesterday - Rachel Satinsky (Employment Law attorney) recommended adding in "at-will" language and not promising anything or person may be eligible for unemployment.
Steve Nevarez-Soto
Depending on enrollment if we only hire returners in person training may not be needed, just online refreshers.
Tim Huchton
ACA has a great library of online training options that you can customize for yoru needs.
https://www.acacamps.org/resource-library/professional-development/create-your-own-online-staff-training-packages
Richelle Williams
We are going to play on a three day in person training unless we are told otherwise
Corrine Pruett
The American Red Cross is offering a 90 day extension course for individuals with a current CPRO or Lifeguard certification. (Linked above)
Venessa Fiedler
free membership code is ACAFREE
Richelle Williams
Can I speak to that?
Sarah Schrenk
All student employees at our university are "at-will" employees. Anyone else?
Tim Huchton
I do work for ACA
www.acacamps.org/membership/free use the Code TIM
1 year of free individual membership
Kathryn Hutchings
We plan to have both virtual and in person training but it will likely start later.
Kelsey Winkler
Yes for lay responder only
Samantha Lowry
Richelle can you please send that to me too? SLowry8@kennesaw.edu
Michael Pappan
Last I knew once you complete the online course you have a year to test out the pratical skills
Jamaica Cannon
That is something we are considering
Natalie Hiller-claridge
On the ACA forum they said not to do the temp because it isn’t the best indicator
Jean Holt
On ACA Call they said you can to daily temps of staff.
Richelle Williams
we are doing zoom interviews
Jamaica Cannon
with staff and campers.
Anne Marie Skylis
sorry - we said take every kid's temperature every day - the camp would be doing this?
Jamaica Cannon
no but that's a great point
Richelle Williams
we haven't even thought about that. that is a great thing to think about.
DeVanee Lasley
is anyone considering a policy on if a camper has a certain temp whether or not they can come to camp that day?
Venessa Fiedler
canvas, zoom
Marissa Engel
ACA Create your own training and Zoom
Natalie Hiller-claridge
We are using expertonlinetraining.com
Crystal Durham
would anyone be willing to share their camp's communicable disease policy? crystal.durham@nau.edu
Bill Moorman
Who (of you) will be checking camper’s temp at check in?
Kenton Elworth
Canvas, zoom and safety skills
Janice DeMonsi
Like with a childs school - parents should know NOT to send their kids to camp unless they have been fever free without medicine for 24 hours.
Jean Holt
ACA has a program that you can build your own sessions or use a pre-packaged program
Christopher Ballard
Zoom for live communication and interviews. and then emailing out powerpoints and webinars
Marissa Engel
kahoot/padlet for interactions and check understanding
Venessa Fiedler
zoom has the breakout room option, which is great!
Jon Janis
I would recommend getting a standard temperature from your Student Health Center if you are concerned
Domonique Sak
@DeVanee, we do a "wellness check" during check-in with the parents. the guidelines are "is there anything visible?" cuts, bruises, scratches, etc. that can be seen should be brought to parent's attention before they leave. when it comes to temperatures, usually you see the camper not being themselves, but you don't catch the temperature spike until later. there have been times where I mentioned a camper didn't look good, the parent touched their forehead, and made that assessment themselves right there. so nothing formal, but whatever is visible
Andrew Hoffer
Has anyone thought about providing childcare (cost or not) to current health care workers, essential employees, etc. currently??
Sean Graninger
I would also talk to your general counsel about taking campers temperatures. If a camper or staff member does get sick you may be opening yourself up to some liability...
Corrine Pruett
Does anyone have a “Junior Counselor” program/position? If so, please email me I would love to hear more about your model! We are also in our second year of camp at WVU and would love to look at other “Parent/Employee Handbooks, Manuals, etc.” if you are willing to share! corrine.pruett@mail.wvu.edu
nick pangio
Tim, does this virtual training allow us to pass our ACA accreditation for us camps that are ACA accredited?
Natalie Hiller-claridge
Expert training was only $390 for us.
Joy Sams
Is anyone conducting 100% virtual camp offering?
Tim Huchton
ONline training resources from ACA
https://www.acacamps.org/resource-library/professional-development/create-your-own-online-staff-training-packages
Venessa Fiedler
We are currently already running coffee hours and trivia nights for our staff to start that process
Janice DeMonsi
Lots more team building activities - but I have no ideas what they would look like
Nora Osei
@Corrine, we have a Counselor In Training Program! I would be more than happy to share more information about it. Please reach out to me at Nora.osei@princeton.edu and we can set up a time to chat.
Jeff Heiser
Michelle Cummings has been doing webinars on Virtual Team Building: http://web-extract.constantcontact.com/v1/social_annotation_v2?permalink_uri=https%3A%2F%2Fmyemail.constantcontact.com%2FTraining-Wheels--More-Virtual-Team-Building-Games-.html%3Fsoid%3D1101278278671%26aid%3DEjUpfdMqANQ&image_url=https%3A%2F%2Fmlsvc01-prod.s3.amazonaws.com%2Ff04fc496001%2F883a7441-c0dd-4b30-bb84-aab8ba7580cc.jpg%3Fver%3D1585694987000&fbclid=IwAR1gX9Zc_6mL6qcaNKvdn7SFljYozWxBlzqq5FFqjFiD270-YE9Fmw1tGf8
NIRSA Smartboard
Since the poll results didn't share to screen, I'll list them here: 70% proceeding as normal; 29% planning with reduced/modified offerings; 15% exploring virtual camps; 7% cancelled (84 individuals responded)
Chad Baker
A lot of universities with team building/challenge course programs are looking at online team building. If you have such a program I would encourage you to talk to them.
nick pangio
do you see a good turnout?
Jamaica Cannon
Are universities treating camps different that have to do with sports vs non contact programs?
Abby Van Note
Nick, we've seen limited results so far but we started this week
Jaclyn Gidley
Rec Sports Camp - very active (aka not daycare) at this point
nick pangio
We are looking to taking out our sport and kitchen camps at ohio state
Bill Moorman
We are active- not daycare.
Domonique Sak
our model is very similar to community recreation because they are our competitors
Michael Pappan
Has anyone explored moving camps to a school break like fall or christmas break?
Natalie Hiller-claridge
Has anyone thought about the fact that schools may be closed, but the virus restrictions get lifted before the normal school year would have ended…Parents are going to be soooo ready to send their kids to camp. Is anyone planning to launch camps early in the outside chance this happens?
nick pangio
we already run those at osu
Crystal Durham
we've explored offering winter break camps, but never have because it's the only down-time I have to get any prep done
Mike Rac
We have multiple "schools out" day camp during the year.
Kenton Elworth
We talked about opening camps early, but everything is pointing to that not being an option to allow for trainings, registrations, and be truly ready
Venessa Fiedler
Keep in mind that supply ordering may become a big factor....orders that are on hold right now are potentially going to hit vendors all at the same time.
Jamaica Cannon
@mike what is the "schools out" day
nick pangio
Abby- we are putting that decision on the university
Angela Caringella
I would be hesitant to start early since we would not have staff adequately trained
Crystal Durham
same as Angela ^
Bill Moorman
We also do Presidents Day camp, spring break camp, birthday parties, special events, etc.
Jeremy Hamlett
We've started a Google Classroom for our currently enrolled campers. We've tested it this week with all small group and will go live with all campers next week. We post instructions and material lists and then the campers can post their completed projects to share and interact. Eventually plan to offer counselor led Zoom activities. If camp does not happen this summer, we'll use this platform to provide a virtual camp. Haven't figured out pricing yet if we're virtual.
nick pangio
we also do snow day camps
Bill Moorman
@Nick how do you plan for those?
Christopher Ballard
^^??
Bill Moorman
@jeremy can I spy in on one of your virtual sessions to see how everything goes?
Bill Moorman
hahaha wmoorman@uccs.edu
Janice DeMonsi
Google Classroom allows you to add assignments, projects and NOT teach them at that time - my son does his classroom time all over the place
Nora Osei
@Jeremy, I would love to see that as well!
nick pangio
for snow day We have parents put a deposit down in the fall and offer from January 15-March for only those campers 1. we set up an on call schedule week by week with staff that are on call. somehow it works. feel free to email me at Pangio.3@osu.edu and I can go in more detail
Andrew Hoffer
Keep your links private. Don’t post them on website or publicly viewed communications.

nick pangio
Abby are you charging for virtual programs
Jon Janis
Don't forget to look at Microsoft Teams which also does virtual classrooms as well
Marissa Engel
what about liability if campers get hurt doing dance or other activities
Venessa Fiedler
sarah kurtz-mckinnon did a great webinar on virtual camps if you can find it
Michael Pappan
Those of you having counselor led sessions are you using Zoom to be more interactive or to control who can see it? Has anyone done Facebook Live demonstratsions?
Jean Holt
We're working with some academic partners (departments) on virtual options
Mike Rac
Teams is great, it does staff scheduling. better than when i work in my opinion.
Jean Holt
Great to see so many camp folks!
Crystal Durham
hey Hoffer!
Mike Rac
its the "shifts" icon within teams. great tool for staff scheduling
Domonique Sak
can someone share tips about seeking ACA accreditation?
Mike Rac
Don't worry Andrew after 15 years in campus rec I moved to the private sector as well.
Venessa Fiedler
Tim Hutchon is your best bet on seeking aca accreditation for camps on campus :)
Abby Van Note
ACA accreditation COVID-19 specific or in general
nick pangio
Join camps on campus!
Venessa Fiedler
If you've never attended the Camps on Campus preconference at the ACA National Conference, you definitely should!! One of the best resources/workshops out there
Jeff Heiser
Thank you all, this is super helpful.
Jean Holt
Are any of your camps accredited with ACA?
Corrine Pruett
General
nick pangio
I am more than happy to talk about the process as well as someone who runs a large ACA accreditaed camp. Pangio.3@osu.edu

Tim Huchton
Tons of great info here
Janice DeMonsi
I would like to know more about who canceled and why - was it administration
Jeremy Hamlett
Marketing and brand preservation if summer 2020 does not happen.
Jamaica Cannon
When they canceled are they saying June/July or limiting into the Fall as well?
Michael Pappan
Demonstation classes/activities for virtual engagement
Mike Rac
For those conducting swim lessons during camp organizing it? How do you work in upcharges?
Jean Holt
We are cancelling on-campus camps b/c our university has moved all summer classes online.
Mike Rac
How are you organizing it. sorry touch screen deleted a portion
Janice DeMonsi
Would you do another session in May as well as we get closer to more camp dates and more potential closures or delays to starting camp it would be useful to be closer to the time camps launch
Venessa Fiedler

lol @brooks. we have to pay students without them working. if they work, we have to pay them on top of the stipend the university has decided
Amanda Bray
We were able to rehire our students under a “cleaning and maintenance” position so that we can track how much money we are spending toward the fight against COVID. We can potentially get paid back for those hours.
Jerrell Kelly
Aaron, we were told at WKU that we have to find meaningful work for any that we keep and our institution also included a letter writing campaign the university is running, but our department has decided not to go this route as all pay would be out of departmental budgets
Crystal Durham
@Aaron I made a list of remote tasks that includes creating a bank of questions that we can use for weekly quizzes in the future, renaming our storing video clips so they aren't IMG003, and taking full video from this year and cutting it into clips for training
DJ Doss
@Brooks - I know that it is a similar type of work, but we have had some of our more veteran employees help with reviewing training material
Jon Randle
KU is continuing pay for students based off their semester average. No work required, in fact, students working is frowned upon. Sometimes money does grow on trees.....
