Coachella Valley summer camps adjust to new CDC guidelines Last year, the coronavirus pandemic cancelled or changed summer camps all across the country. Now, the CDC has released new guidance on how they can operate this upcoming season. “They are requiring the kids to wear masks and they are still requiring some social distancing," said Sarie Gonsalves. "They are going to have anybody that is not related stay in separate tents so my kids four of them are going so they’ll be able to bunk up together.” Sarie Gonsalves, mother of five boys, is happy that in-person summer camps are back.
