NOLA Summer camps are reopening, but Phase 1 will be anything but normal

The lengths some schools will go is hysterical. Kids are confined to room, can’t go outside, can’t play with their friends, and oh we will get rid of the name camp and change it to care. LOL. Those 12 month olds will listen to these guidelines
NOLA
St. George's Episcopal School, which holds camp for kids ages 12 months to those entering second grade, changed the name of its "Dragon Camp" to "Dragon Care," and recently told parents about the new guidelines the Napoleon Avenue school would be following.
According to the note sent to parents by camp director Kate Remillard, lunch will be eaten in classrooms, indoor spaces will be used one group at a time, kids outside of groups won't be able to mingle during outdoor play and there will be new, "head to toe" napping rules.
The letter also said kids could be asked to leave camp if they couldn't comply with rules.
In an interview, Remillard and Joseph Kreutziger, St. George's head of school, said they wanted to be very clear with parents about what to expect, but said they still wanted kids to have fun with group projects and more.

Newman canceled all summer camps, but we got an email today gauging interest in four one-week camps. Groups of 10 and no interaction with groups other than the one the kid is in.

It’s not a camp according to St George it’s a care facility because the kids aren’t allowed to go outside.

That is the safest place to be

Probably because Phase 1 allows playgrounds to be open, but not playground equipment.
I'm not kidding.

We will reflect on the hilariousness of this whole situation at some point. Right now it's just sad.

What 12 month old goes to camp? Most are just learning to walk and some can’t even walk yet.

I have become so miserable of human being due to my anger I am about to create and alter account just to bitch even more

I get that no rules are perfect, but common sense is not allowed to be factored in to a lot of these rules.
The other day at Peaches it took the 3rd cop coming around before eventually they shut down the perfectly social distanced crowd.

Took my Komodo there for a check-up and they wouldn't even look at him. 1/10, do not recommend.

I think you had your little meltdown before this really got going

My sons summer camp did not get canceled... they want to do it on zoom! They expect an autistic 5 year old boy to sit in front of a zoom meeting for 4 hours a day over the summer, yeah right.

If they're worried about covid, wouldn't that be the best place for the kids?

Schools with early childhood centers are struggling on how deal with all the government guide lines. Country Day cancelled their entire summer camp program last week after waiting for the state to finally open up, but quickly realized it wasn't realistic to keep young kids within the ridiculous guidelines. Sucks as a parent.

It is true that people are legitimately stupid... this policy is 180 degrees backwards ....
