We are praying that you are staying healthy and well during this time. I want to take a second to update you on where Camp stands in relation to the continued spread of COVID-19.

The Camp Board and leadership at Byron United Methodist Church are actively contingency planning and considering what is best for our program over the next several months. We feel it is currently best to pause registration for Camp Vinson Valley, pending a final decision on scheduling and operation for 2020. A final decision will be made early next week concerning this Summer.

While Camp has not been cancelled at this time, we want you to be aware that safety on our campus is our primary driver in making this decision. We are looking at recommendations from National, State, and Local authorities, as well as organizations around the country that operate in a similar capacity to ours to determine what is best for our program.

In the event of any changes or cancellation you will be notified immediately by written letter and email, as well as digitally on Facebook and our website. Also, know that in the event of any cancellation we will be issuing full refunds.

As always, we are praying for you and your campers. We are so looking forward to when we can all get together again. Please know that any decision is not one made in haste, and without the utmost concern for what is best for our Camp and our community. We love y’all and will continue to stay in touch.

Sincerely,

Jesse Thompson

Camp Director
