Committed to keeping students, campers, and instructors healthy, we introduced enhanced cleaning
procedures and physical distancing protocols. Following the guidelines set by the CDC and state and
local authorities, Lone Star Circus School is at minimum, implementing the following protocols that are
subject to change as appropriate.

 

How students and campers should prepare…

• Come dressed for class and camp. There will not be a changing area. However, restrooms and sinks are available.

• Bring your own water bottle with name on it with lid and/or built-in straw. No water fountain access.

• No food except for camper’s lunches, which should be sealed and preferably pre-packaged.

• Everyone is responsible for cleaning up their areas, throwing away any trash and taking home anything, they bring with them that day.

• Parents, guardians, and other guests are not allowed inside facility. They are welcome to stay outside in their cars.
