2022 SCYM SESSIONS COVID SAFETY PROCEDURES

• Greene Family Camp (GFC) requires all their staff to be vaccinated, wear masks and observe distancing. They will clean the site completely before we arrive.
• We recommend that attendees monitor themselves for symptoms in the days prior to SCYM Sessions. If concerned about a potential positive test result, attendees may want to take a rapid test at home within 24 hours before arriving at camp - but will still be tested at camp.
• All attendees will be required to take a rapid COVID test upon arrival at GFC.
• If an attendee tests positive at camp, they will need to leave the camp. If unable to leave due to transportation issues, the individual will need to isolate in a single room for the duration of their stay.
• Friends are asked to wear masks in public except when eating and maintain safe distancing guidelines during their stay at GFC.
• The registrars plan to house Friends in a way that maximizes the safety of all.

Those on Medicare should be able to get 8 free COVID tests a month from a drugstore:

International Climate Policy:
From Quiet Diplomacy to Youth Activism
March 15 at 1pm EDT

Please join us for a discussion about strategies for activism from Kallan Benson, Fridays for Future USA Director and Friend from Annapolis MD and priorities for advocacy, including the Right to a Healthy Environment alongside other efforts from Lindsey Cook, QUNO Representative for Climate Change and Friend from Bonn, Germany. Both Kallan and Lindsey participated in COP 26 in Glasgow, approaching the situation from different perspectives. We will host a dialogue with both of them to share stories and explore collaboration.
Kallan Benson will be with us at 2022 SCYM Sessions. She will offer three workshops (1 with her parent). All are multi-generational, appropriate for Middle School and older. She will be our Keynote presenter and be a resource through the sessions.
