Dear Camp Family,
I hope that you remain in good health during this challenging time. With a heavy heart, I share with you that Camp Reece will not be offering overnight camp this summer. After many long days and sleepless nights, our staff have been working to find solutions to every possible contingency, but ultimately the uncertainties are still too great too late in the season.
Camp Reece is an experience I know your child was looking forward to. Operating a safe and enriching camp takes many months of preparation under normal circumstances. However, with the many unknown threats, combined with shortages of tests and supplies, as well as the sensible guidance from NY Governor Cuomo, not to hold gatherings that attract large groups of people from outside the local area, Camp Reece cannot in good faith offer the safe and enriching camp experience your child deserves.
I know this is heartbreaking news. We never imagined we would see a summer without camp. Our confidence that we will return next year remains strong, so please stay safe and healthy, and we will see you in summer 2021.
The Camp Reece Team
