Fun and Safety – ACA Camps Set the Standard
ACA Accreditation means that Summit Camp & Travel cares enough to undergo a thorough (up to 300 standards) review of its operation — from staff qualifications and training to emergency management. American Camp Association® collaborates with experts from the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Red Cross, and other youth-serving agencies to assure that current practices at the camp and on travel reflect the most up-to-date, research-based standards in camp and travel operation. Camps and ACA form a partnership that promotes summers of growth and fun in an environment committed to safety.
