VACCINATION INFORMATION

This document is subject to modification because public health circumstances are dynamic and UCI's response changes as the virus mutates, our understanding of the virus develops and community transmission fluctuates. 

 Covid-19/Vaccination protocols:
The University has determined that campers will no longer need to show Proof of vaccination or have an approved exception.  While not required, vaccinations are strongly encouraged. Parents/guardians will need to sign a waiver and still adhere to the symptom checking protocol listed below.

SYMPTOM-CHECKING
Campers and their families must conduct a symptom check each day before camp.
Campers must not attend camp if:

    • Muscle or body aches
    • Unexpected fatigue
    • Loss of taste or smell (new)
    • Headache
    • Diarrhea, vomiting, or nausea
  • The camper is required to isolate or quarantine – and not attend camp -- according to then-current California Department of Public Health guidance 

All online camp/clinic registrations will close at 12pm PST, one (1) business day before the camp/clinic begins (this will either be the Friday before the Monday/Saturday/Sunday, Thursday before the Friday, etc.). A full payment must be made.

During the academic school year, sport specific clinics are available depending on the sport in the fall, winter and spring.
