Camp Sonshine 2020 Health & Safety Update

We want to express our love, support, and prayers for all those around the world and in the states that have been impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak. The situation that we find ourselves in is concerning and will require that we respond appropriately. One of the Core Values at Camp Sonshine is Legendary Service. For us, this means delivering exceptional and exceeding expectations. My team and I are preparing to respond to this virus in a Legendary Way and we are committed to serving our community with safety, determination, and wisdom.

We want all of you to know that we are planning on being open as usual this summer!

Spring Break Camp Plans:

Currently, we are still planning on operating Spring Break Camp as scheduled. As of now, the school system and the governor have not made any decisions regarding spring break. Many of the summer measures listed below will be taken in measure for our spring break campers. The major change for our Spring Break camp will be the schedule concerning the field trips. We will be sending an updated schedule next week. Our plan is to reduce outside field trips as much as possible. Please feel free to contact our Parent Services team next week for more details and we will send information to all registrations.
