Camp Geronimo's Top 5 Questions
Is Camp Geronimo Hosting Summer Camp?
Yes! Camp Geronimo will have 8 sessions staring May 30, 2021 – July 18, 2021 with the cohort system! Glad you asked!
So, what is a cohort?
First, our Council Staff and Health Supervisor are coordinating with state and local health departments to ensure we are informed of and comply with their guidance to maximize health and safety of all participants. View our Camp Health plan. http://www.campgeronimo.org/covid-19-safety/
A cohort is a set of units made up of no more than 50 Scouts and Scouters.
- It ensures that you will never be in a group of more than 50 people.
- Helps our staff know when they need to sanitize each program area.
- If someone shows symptoms of COVID-19, we will be able to notify you if you were exposed to that individual.
- It gives you and your Scouts the opportunity to still meet new people while at Camp.
