Why not?

They can't wait until July 1 to decide. I assume preparations would have had to be already underway.

All I know is a certain camp that has its head in the sand and during this crisis have put out a search for staffing. My wife got an email asking for help finding someone to fill a position. We just sat there and shook our heads in disbelief. Their belief is that it will be business as usual and because they are not in Sullivan County or the Town of Fallsburg they are good.

even if this is behind us, summer camp is so clustered that if 1 person gets it, then what? Proably need to cancel and quarentine everyone/ Probably not worth to risk it this year.

1. It will be behind us by then.
2. They say the summer will kill the virus.
3. The camp is quarantined in it self.

Just going to address 3 because the first 2 you have no idea for sure. But number 3 is certainly not true. No deliveries or guests come to camp? Have you been to a camp before?

Aside from this, what makes anyone think the schools won't be pushing summer school to make up missed days? How will they move kids up a year without having met minimum educational requirements?

Yes I have, and for some time running a camp behind the scenes.
1. The people making the deliveries have zero to minimum contact with people on campus.
2. For the minimum contact, there are rules that can be enacted & enforced.
