Will there be Sleep Away Camp this summer?

[S209]

1. Pray tell when and why it will be gone?
2. The summer won't kill the virus. We know this for a fact because it's ravaging in places where it is summer.
3. Like the cruise ships.

1. This
2. This
3. This

I’m not saying it’s a certainty that camps won’t be opening but it’s certainly far from likely that they will

[moko]

What happens when camp is over in middle of an outbreak?

[Shmobaum]

Heard that camp tubby (famous girls camp) returned deposits for first-half...

1. Because God runs this world
2. I hear... maybe... but remember God runs this world
3. The ship was infected by people who came on and was never properly disinfected before round two

We all know that my friend. I believe the people responding are coming from a practical and realistic point of view using the data and general feel that’s out there. There’s nothing wrong with that.

Something is going to have to open first, IMO camps would probably be high on the list because they can keep out anyone above whatever age (35, 40, 50, or 60?) who didn't test positive for COVID/antibodies, even if it means the  director can't come. There will definitely have to be changes, no trips, no guests, etc.

And I thought people only lie about their age when it comes to shidduchim...

Don't mean to be a preacher or sound ignorant, but the situation- on a psychological basis- is as bad as we make it. The ones who come out of this victorious are those whose Emunah & Bittachon didn't remain stagnant, rather grew while doing what they can to 'Stop the Spread'

what does Gd runs the world have to do anything? Wasn’t he running the World when the virus came in the first place??

What does this have to do with being realistic when deciding whether make plans?

Yes and some people are blind. Now even the atheists are starting to say 'Etzba Elokim Hi'

A decision to go to a Bungalow Colony or Camp this summer you it should have been already. Making backup plans, that's up to you.

[mochjas]

Yes and some people are blind. Now even the atheists are starting to say 'Etzba Elokim Hi'

again nothing to do with anything

One of my neighbors who run a camp said they arent planning anything now. So even if camp is allowed to open, they have nothing prepared for at all, so they will only be open second half, if that.

[mochjas]

I was so close to giving a deposit for camp (day camp) before this got out of hand. So happy I waited

im sure they would have returned to you

But why are you so confident that his will is for camps to be open?

[tzifanya54]

Not so sure. I gave a deposit, and it does not seem like they are opening, yet no money returned yet. Yeshivahs at least by me are cashing headchecks business as usual, with no communication with the parents. Money makes people do funny things.

There is one camp that sent out a letter. Hamaivin Yovin
