ACA Sections Have Received Scores from
2008 Summer Visits
ACA Sections have been provided with the
scores for all camps where an accreditation
visit was conducted this summer. The Section
boards will be reviewing these and will
vote on the accreditation status of all
camps (those visited in 2008 and those
which are currently accredited) no later
than October 31, 2008. Camps visited this
summer will be receiving a letter from
the Section notifying them of their accreditation
status no later than November 10. Unless
notified, all other camps accreditation
status remains current.

Thanks to ACA Visitors
Many, many thanks to the 1400+ ACA standards
visitors who volunteered days of their
valuable time to travel to camps to conduct
written documentation previews and on-site
accreditation visits. The ACA-accreditation
system relies on the willingness and
expertise of its trained volunteers who
complete 924 on-site visits within a
two-month period. No other national
accreditation program has such dedicated
volunteers!
ACA members interested in getting involved
as visitors should contact
their local ACA Office for information
on eligibility and training options.

Annual Statements of Compliance
Camps who
are seeking or renewing ACA accreditation
have received numerous notices about submitting
their 2008 Annual Statements of Compliance.
Submission of the Statement of Compliance
confirms their compliance with applicable
laws and codes and with ACA standards and
ethics and is a required part of the accreditation
process. At
this time, we are encouraging camps to
sign and submit the Statement
of Compliance electronically.
Contact the standards department with questions
or to request a paper copy, 800-428-2267,
ext. 305. The deadline for camps
to submit their 2008 Statement of Compliance
is October 31, 2008.
