Health & Safety Protocols

 COVID-19 measures, policy and procedures for  camp

The health and safety of your children are our top priority. Our practices meet or exceed all BC COVID-19 guidelines.

In compliance with the BC Health Authority and Guidelines, we ask for the health and safety of everyone, if you, your child or anyone in your household is experiencing ANY SYMPTOMS related to Covid-19 please call or e-mail us immediately. You can reserve a different day and week for your child or you will be given a FULL refund for the missed week this summer.

We need all parents or caregivers to check over and ask your child before camp to confirm they have no current symptoms of Covid-19 ahead of camp drop-off.

Rainforest Adventure camps reserve the right to call parents or caregivers to come and pick up their child if we feel they are too unwell and or experiencing covid-19 symptoms. We want to ensure the well-being and safety of the child, and the camp. We will be outdoors most of the day, only going inside to use public restroom facilities and pools. For this reason, We also ask that all campers bring a mask and hand sanitizer with them to camp.

Masks are optional; based on personal preference and comfort levels for each individual, but we do ask you to bring one regardless, just in case.
