ACA's Camp Safety Summit is a focused professional development dedicated to emergency preparedness, response, and recovery for camps. This Summit explores all aspects of risk management and emergency preparedness, including weather-related incidents, and health and safety emergencies. ACA is here as a resource for camps before emergencies happen, not just after, and this symposium is designed to help camp professionals strengthen their plans, clarify their roles, and build systems that work when conditions are far from ideal. Participants will learn from industry experts and have dedicated time to network alongside peers to test ideas, share strategies, and think through real scenarios. Emergency preparedness isn’t about expecting the worst; it’s about being ready for reality. Acting now gives you options later.
