TEENPOWER COVID-19 INFORMATION

Registration:

• Our participant capacity at TEENPOWER will be even more limited this year due to COVID.
  • Please plan to register AT 6pm on the appropriate night to give your student the best opportunity to secure a spot, but please know and prepare ahead of time for the potential that your student will be on the waiting list.
  • We will keep a waiting list and will add participants from it if another participant drops their spot or if capacity increases.
  • We will work until the last possible moment prior to TEENPOWER to accommodate as many students as possible.

Roommates

• Preferred roommates may or may not be accommodated due to UE/Youth Resources procedures to mitigate COVID risk in the dorms.
  • We are collecting preferred roommate information on the registration form IN CASE we are able to room participants with someone they know.
  • Please list ONE NAME and ONLY ONE NAME on the registration form as your student’s preferred roommate.
  • If your preferred roommate is on the waiting list, and we are able to accommodate roommate preferences, we will contact you.

Before TEENPOWER:

• We will be requiring proof of completed COVID vaccine, OR
• Proof of a negative COVID test at minimum 48 hours prior and at maximum 72 hours prior to arrival at TEENPOWER.
• We will be requiring ALL participants – tested and vaccinated – to quarantine.
  • Students who are not vaccinated will quarantine after their COVID test until TEENPOWER begins to ensure they are not exposed to or do not contract COVID after their negative result.
  • Students who are fully vaccinated will quarantine for the 48 hours prior to their arrival at TEENPOWER.
• We will send a 14-day symptom and exposure tracking sheet with participant TEENPOWER packet for families to monitor COVID symptoms. Students will be required to turn in their completed tracking sheet at registration.
