Camps facing another uncertain summer with lockdowns April 16, 2021
While a murky forecast for the 2020 summer camping season was expected with the unknowns surrounding COVID-19, organizations that operate day and overnight camps for Ontario youth never thought a similar script would play out a year later.

Karen Stevens, director of operations for the Hamilton, Ont.-based Catholic Youth Organization (C.Y.O) and Camp Marydale, said the C.Y.O. met with one of the head provincial doctors March 30, walking away with the expectation that they would soon be armed with guidance to prepare to host April school-break camps.
