COVID SAFETY PROTOCALS & POLICIES

BlackRock Youth Art Academy encourages all participants to wear masks and maintain appropriate social distancing when possible.  All camp participants should refrain from attending camp while experiencing any COVID-19 related symptoms. 

 

If a camper tests positive for COVID, the camper will be given a credit for days missed due to quarantine requirements. Credit can be applied toward camp or running seasonal classes through Summer 2023.  No refunds will be given.  Families of children in close contact with someone who tests positive for COVID will be notified. Testing is strongly encouraged in these cases.
