What about COVID Safety?
Information provided by Mountain TOP: “We are paying attention to CDC guidelines and best practices recommended by the American Camping Association as we make plans for our programs in 2021. Based on the uncertainty surrounding the accessibility of a vaccine, we will not be requiring participants to vaccinate prior to coming to camp. Our health and safety protocols will be heavily influenced by non-pharmaceutical interventions that are within our capacity to manage. We will be limiting the number of participants in our camps. In 2021, we will be offering 100% refunds if a church or Mountain T.O.P. is forced to cancel our programs because of COVID-19.”
