EMLENTON, Pa. – After reviewing data and guidance provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Pennsylvania Department of Health, the American Camp Association, the Association of Camp Nurses and Orthodox Camp Directors and, based on the opinion of health-care experts who have described social distancing as “incongruous” with the summer camp setting, the Executive Committee of All Saints Camp has voted to postpone opening until August 31. The announcement was posted on April 20.
The decision was reached in concert with the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the U.S.A. camping programs and with the blessing of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the U.S.A. Council of Bishops.
