Updated Summer Camp Guide 2020
COVID-19 Update (06/05/2020)
With the state of Florida moving to Phase 2 status, our July camps are happening and we have rescheduled camps originally planned for June to July when possible. Our camp staff will follow the health and safety protocols which Shorecrest's Leadership team has put in place. Camps will be limited to 10 individuals so we have very few spaces left.
04/27/2020 update - With the Governor’s decision to keep school facilities closed through the remainder of the academic year and the release of the planned phases to re-open commerce, it deeply saddens us to share that we are cancelling St. Pete MAD’s JUNE camps. This includes the postponing of Descendants The Musical until cast and audience can come together. This decision has been made with the health of our campers, staff, and host locations as our top priority. We assure you that much consideration was given to reach this hard decision. At this time July camps are still scheduled.
Please note: June camp tuition paid through Shorecrest’s registration was refunded by Shorecrest. Tuition for our Tik Tok and Descendant The Musical camps was NOT be charged.
