We have made the decision to kick off summer camps at Covecrest and Hidden Lake only on July 6th!

The health and safety of our campers is our #1 priority. In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, we think it is important that you understand our efforts to manage your campers’ health and safety so that you can make an informed decision. Life Teen is focusing on ensuring that we are complying with all summer camp guidelines set forth by the state of GA, as well as taking all reasonable measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19 in our camps.

• All campers will be required to test negative for COVID-19 within a week of coming to camp.
• We will divide groups into groups of no more than 20 and maintain social distancing between groups while at camp.
• We will be taking measures to monitor and address symptomatic campers by introducing a pre-camp health screen, daily temperature checks, and protocols to isolate, confirm, respond, and remove any camper or staff suspected to have COVID-19.
• All away days will be eliminated, and no one will be allowed to leave camp property without being retested for COVID-19.
• We are strengthening our standard cleaning procedures, including increasing the frequency of wiping down common touch points, dining hall areas, and activity equipment.

How did we reach this decision?

• We received guidelines from the State of Georgia that includes measures that match Life Teen’s COVID-19 Camps Response Plan.
• In consultation with our staff and board of directors, we feel confident that a group attending the weeks of summer camp this summer will have one of the best weeks ever. While our programming will be adapted and meeting and dining rooms will be marked for group sizes, we believe that it will be a Life Teen and EDGE Camp experience that you’ve come to expect!
• After a lot of prayer and feedback from many of you (including parents) still wanting us to host camps, we feel that now more than ever teens need to be able to attend summer camps.
• Looking at the amount of preparation we will need to make summer camps a reality and realizing that many of your parishes are just starting to open up again, we are going to kick off summer camps at Covecrest and Hidden Lake only on July 6th! So here are the actual weeks we will host Summer Camps in Georgia!
