Polio (Poliomyelitis, Infantile Paralysis)
This makes polio very dangerous, especially for New Yorkers who are unvaccinated or not up to date with their polio immunizations.
There is no cure for polio, but disease, including paralysis, is preventable through safe and effective vaccination. IPV—the only vaccine available in the U.S.—is safe and contains no live virus. It protects 99 – 100 percent of people who receive all recommended doses.
Why are we concerned?
Polio had been considered eliminated from the United States since 1979, meaning there was no longer routine spread of the virus. Then on July 21, 2022, the New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) and the Rockland County Department of Health (RCDOH) alerted the public to a case of paralytic polio in an unvaccinated young adult in Rockland County. The case was identified by NYSDOH's Wadsworth Center Laboratory and confirmed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) through testing. The individual experienced severe symptoms, including paralysis, and was hospitalized. New Yorkers should know that paralysis from polio is typically permanent, resulting in life-long disability.
Poliovirus spreads rapidly and easily- it often does not cause symptoms or causes milder symptoms without paralysis, so even one case of paralysis generally means that there is wider spread of the virus in the community and others are at risk.
How does polio spread?

Polio spreads from person-to-person through contact with the poop (often tiny, invisible amounts) of an infected person. It can also spread through the sneeze or cough droplets from an infected person.
This can happen when someone is in close contact with an infected person, such as by caring for them or sharing food or utensils with them.
Polio is very contagious, and not everyone who is infected with polio will show symptoms. Some have mild or flu-like symptoms that can be easily mistaken for another type of virus.
Still, all infected people can spread the virus and infect others, even if they have no symptoms.

California State Library Parks Pass Participating and Nonparticipating Parks

The California State Library Parks Pass offers vehicle day-use entry to over 200 participating state park units operated by State Parks to library-card holders. California public library-card holders can check out the vehicle day-use pass at their local public library. The California State Library Parks Pass is valid for entry of one passenger vehicle with capacity of nine people or less or one highway-licensed motorcycle.
The pass will not be honored at state park units operated by federal or local government and private agencies or concessionaires, and does not provide access to state vehicular recreation areas (off-highway vehicle parks) or for per-person entry or tour fees (such as at the Hearst San Simeon State Historical Monument).

Camping Things To Know - NYS Parks, Recreation & Historic Preservation

sites have been reserved/rented, the accessible sites then become available on a "first-come/first-served" basis.
Each year the campground makes every effort to provide safe swimming opportunities by testing the water and by keeping the swimming areas staffed with lifeguards. Please be aware that if the safety of our swimmers is 
	compromised due to lack of lifeguard coverage or water quality issues, swimming will be prohibited. Swimming cannot be a guaranteed activity; therefore, we cannot offer refunds on camping stays. We apologize for this 
	inconvenience as it may occur with little advance notice.
Help us keep the campground safe for everyone. Please report any incidents, accidents, or maintenance problems immediately to the park staff.
Upon discovering that a permit holder or camping occupant is a registered Level 2 or Level 3 sex offender, the Office is authorized to direct the occupant to leave the campground and may revoke the camping permit.
Any additional rules and regulations will be observed. The park manager reserves the right to revoke any permit, when necessary, in order to ensure the peace, comfort, and safety of all campers in the facility.

Please keep in mind that each campground may have its own specific rules in addition to the above.
Rules and regulations are subject to change at any time without notice.
Cancellations
To cancel a reservation prior to arrival you can cancel online or contact Reserve America at 1-800-456-2267. If you are cancelling on the day of arrival you must contact the campground directly. 
When you cancel your reservation, you will be assessed fees. It's important to know the closer to your arrival date you cancel, the 
 less money you will receive back as a refund.

Cancelling 8 days or more prior to arrival - Reservation fee $7.25 + Cancellation Fee $7.25
Cancelling 7 days or less prior to arrival - Reservation fee $7.25 + Cancellation Fee $7.25 + the cost of the 
 first night's stay (this amount varies based on the cost of your site).
All fees are retained if you fail to arrive and do not inform the park of a cancellation in advance.
