Once again, camps are in a difficult position, needing to be an escape for kids while also keeping everybody safe.
Many camps were operational last summer when the pandemic was still relatively new. Changes were needed to keep kids and staff safe.
A year later, and those changes are still in place.
Even as people are getting vaccinated and life is more open compared to the summer of 2020, camps aren’t taking any chances.
Many were able to run successful programs last year, with some, like Rhodes Grove Camp in Chambersburg, having no reported COVID-19 cases.
“I’m not gonna lie, last summer was stressful,” said Austin Masser, ministry director at Rhodes Grove. “It’s not the most ideal situation trying to run a camp through a pandemic, but luckily we were able to make it work.”

Franklin County residents have an opportunity to help out people in their community and many local restaurants this week.
The South Central Community Action Program is hosting a virtual auction and celebration this week, with almost 200 items up for auction. The page can be found here.
One sizeable part of the auction is gift cards for local restaurants. Usually, restaurants would donate the gift cards to auctions, but in the midst of the pandemic, SCCAP had to find another way. We knew that we couldn t go to restaurants who are having such a hard time and ask them to donate gift cards, so we created a couple sponsorship opportunities where our sponsors supported our restaurants by purchasing gift cards and then putting them into our auction, Cheryl Brown, resource development director, said. It s a really cool win-win situation.
