SUMMARY:What's the Buzz On Covid at Camp in 2023
DESCRIPTION:What’s the Buzz on COVID Preparations for Summer 2023?

Will you require vaccinations? Testing?

ACA\, New England staff will be there to guide/facilitate the conversation\, but this will be a participant-led discussion. \nCome prepared to have your videos on\, ask questions\, and engage in dialogue with your peers. \nWhen: Monday\, January 30\, 11 am – 12 pm ET \nWhere: Zoom \nCost: FREE for ACA members; $25 for non-members \nRegistration Link\nBecause this session is based on real-time dialogue\, it will not be recorded. Please plan to join us live. \nQuestions? Contact Kerry Salvo\, Director of Education and Professional Development at ACA\, New England\, kerry@acanewengland.org or 781-541-6080. \nRegistrations are non-refundable\, but may be transferred to another participant from your camp/organization.
