Health & Safety at Camp

In-person summer camps are back! Covid-19 protocols include regular sanitation of high touch areas, daily temperature checks, smaller class sizes and lower camp capacity. In order to ensure the safety of all participants, all campers and staff are required to provide proof of updated vaccination before the start of camp. Mask wearing is encouraged, but optional for campers. Offering a safe and clean environment for educating your children is our highest priority, and we are very much looking forward to welcoming our patrons and students to the new Virginia Rep Center for Arts and Education.
