Camp Fire Day Camps are accredited by the American Camp Association, meeting high standards in health, safety, and program quality. The ACA also provides resources for camp directors and parents.

What is the ACA?

The American Camp Association (ACA) is a professional association of camp owners and professionals which provides education, resources, networking and training for over 2,400 member camps. ACA’s accreditation program ensures that camps meet high standards in health, safety and program quality. ACA also provides excellent resources for parents of campers.

ACA Accreditation

Every three years, our Day Camps demonstrate to ACA visitors that we meet up to 300 standards in health care, food service, site and facilities, transportation, administration, emergency management, human resources, program quality, and safety for all of our activities.

ACA Standards are recognized by courts of law and governments as the standards in the camp community. Choosing an ACA Accredited camp means choosing a camp that believes in upholding best practices and has a commitment to safety.
