- A visit cannot be ignored.
- Once a visit begins, it should continue,
and the Section is bound to its results.
- The Section may not ignore the current
visit and extend accreditation from a
previous visit.
If the camp is not prepared for the visit:
- The Visitor is encouraged to strengthen
the educational process by helping the
camp staff understand what they need
to do to be prepared for a standards
visit the following year.
- A Visitor should not terminate a visit
without full consent of the director;
regardless of how unprepared the Visitor
feels the director may be.
- If the scoring cannot be completed,
the camp director should be made aware
that accreditation will be denied in
the current year.
- The camp must be scheduled for a visit
the following summer to regain or obtain
accreditation.
On a rare occasion, the Visitor may terminate
the visit without the consent of the camp
director:
- If the Visitor feels that he(she) is
being abused by the camp director and
no longer feels safe; or
- If the Visitor encounters an extreme
personal emergency.
- In the event such a situation occurs,
the Section Standards Committee
will determine an appropriate course
of action.
How does a Visitor document a visit that
has been terminated?
- If the visit is not completed, an explanation
of the termination should be noted on the
comment form, and the rationale and standard
at which the visit stopped should be indicated.
Both the Visitor and the camp director should
sign the score form acknowledging a terminated
visit.
