We are so excited for camp this year and are hopeful to have it live\, in person. Lake Doniphan Conference &\; Retreat Center in Excelsior Spring s\, MO will once again be our host location. We are grateful for our conti nued partnership with their staff and facilities.\n\n Campers: Camp Wilde rness will begin on Monday\, August 1\, 2022.\n Volunteer Staff: Camp Wil derness will begin Sunday\, July 31\, 2022.\n All: Camp Wilderness will e nd for everyone on Friday August 5\, 2022.\n\nIt has been a long two years and we realize camp has possibly drifted from being a routine activity fo r you as a camper or volunteer. We firmly believe in the value of camp and what it provides to youth with bleeding disorders. Please take a moment t o fill out the application and register your camper for their best week ev er!\n\nAnd of course\, Camp Wilderness would not be possible without the m any individuals who donate their time to serve as staff volunteers. We inv ite you to complete the application to volunteer for your best week ever a s well!\n\nRegistration can be accessed through CampDoc and if you have us ed this system before\, it should have saved all of your previous answers to make registration simple. The link below will register everyone\, both campers and volunteer staff.\n\n\nThe registration deadline for campers an d volunteers is Monday\, June 27\, 2022.\n \;\n\n\n \;\nCovid-19 D etails\n\n\nIn an effort to communicate clearly\, I want to share a couple things regarding Camp Wilderness this year. We are not completely out of the woods regarding COVID-19 even though restrictions have relaxed in the surrounding Kansas City area. We have been communicating and deliberating with the Kansas City Regional Hemophilia Treatment Center and we have deci ded to use the same risk mitigation plan previously established for Camp W ilderness.\n\nThis includes but isn't limited to:\n\n Separating cabins i nto pods\n Utilizing masks and social distancing\n Prescreening with sym ptom checks and rapid tests\n\nIn addition to the previously established p lan\, we have decided all staff and campers who attend Camp Wilderness mus t be fully vaccinated regarding COVID-19. A person is considered fully vac cinated two weeks after receiving all recommended doses in the primary ser ies of their COVID-19 vaccination. To clarify\, Pfizer-BioNTech and Modern a require two doses in their primary series while Johnson &\; Johnson ’s Janssen requires one dose. We encourage individuals to be up to date with their COVID-19 vaccination by being fully vaccinated and receiving on e booster when eligible but it will not be necessary to attend Camp Wilder ness.\n\nWe simply don’t know what will happen four months from now and in an effort to have camp\, we have chosen to do everything possible to ha ve the best chance for camp to happen in person. At this point in time\, w e believe following the already established processes and procedures to mi tigate COVID-19 and ensuring everyone is fully vaccinated is the best deci sion.\n\nAll of the specific details regarding the COVID-19 policies are i n the "COVID-19 Information Section" of the camp application for both staf f and campers.\n\nWe so desperately want to have camp\, however\, more imp ortantly we want to keep our campers and staff healthy. We appreciate your understanding and look forward to seeing you this year at Camp Wilderness to have our BEST WEEK EVER!\n\nIf you have questions\, concerns\, and/or need assistance registering for camp please contact me for assistance.\n\n All the best!\nLuke Saulsberry\nCamp Wilderness Director\ncampdirector@mid westhemophilia.org\n816.315.7308\n\nPlease note: I do have a new email add ress: campdirector@midwesthemophilia.org which means my old address is def unct and will not work.\nThank you to our Camp Wilderness Sponsors:\nTrail Angels \nTrail Leaders\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \;\n\n CATEGORIES:Camp END:VEVENT BEGIN:VTIMEZONE TZID:America/Chicago X-LIC-LOCATION:America/Chicago BEGIN:DAYLIGHT DTSTART:20220313T030000 TZOFFSETFROM:-0600 TZOFFSETTO:-0500 TZNAME:CDT END:DAYLIGHT END:VTIMEZONE END:VCALENDAR
