Our camps are ACA Accredited The American Camp Association is the only nationwide organization that accredits children’s camps.

Accreditation requirements include a focus on staff qualifications, training, supervision ratios and procedures, as well as operational management including safety regulations and emergency procedures and communications.
“The counselor made my daughter feel very comfortable on her first day, her first time at a day camp. The counselors seemed well trained, coordinated and focused on keeping the kid’s engaged to have a positive experience. We will be back. She told me she is excited for her sister to be with her next year. Thanks!”
