2022 Girl Scouts of Eastern Missouri COVID-19 Protocol
Programs/Events at the Berges Family Program Center Protocol
COVID-19 Risk Mitigation Follow the resources developed by credible public health sources such as the CDC or your local public health department for COVID-19 risk mitigation practices, including: • Program participants should make sure temperatures are taken prior to the program to confirm the individual is not running a fever and their temperature is normal (approximately 98.6° F). Participants with a temperature 100.4° F or greater should skip the in-person program and reschedule when their temperature is normal. • Girl Scouts of Eastern Missouri requires that masks be worn by individuals age 2 and older when indoors at all Girl Scout properties, including our camps and service center, unless the individual is fully vaccinated (two weeks past the second dose of the Pfizer or Moderna vaccine or two weeks past the single dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine). Masks are not typically required when outdoors at Girl Scout properties, though social distancing is still highly encouraged. (Please note, all campers must provide their own mask and carry it with them at all times when attending resident and day camps, as there may be times during which campers and staff will be required to mask, regardless of location or vaccination status, for the safety of the entire camp community, such as at check-in or in case of an emergency.) Participants are strongly encouraged to bring their own masks. Disposable masks will be on hand for those who need them. Permission to Attend A girl, parent/caregiver, or volunteer (or member of their household) must meet certain participation parameters before attending a Girl Scouts of Eastern Missouri in-person meeting or gathering. Turn to pg. 5 for a comprehensive list of participation parameters. Reporting and Communicating a Positive COVID-19 Test In the event of a COVID-19 positive test result following participation in a Council Program Event, promptly contact Girl Scouts of Eastern Missouri’s Senior Manager, Risk Management, Dan Sise, dsise@girlscoutsem. org to receive explicit guidance. To protect confidentiality, Council staff members, NOT participants or Program Facilitators, will be responsible for: • Confirming and tracing the positive individual • Contacting the parent/caregiver of anyone who may have been exposed (or other volunteers) • Notifying a facility where a troop has met
