The Clorox Company

Learn the skills you need to succeed. Camping Magazine is your primary source for the most recent trends in the camp industry,  the latest research in the field of youth development, critical management tools,  and innovative programming ideas. The July/August 2010 issue features articles that address programming, history, 20/20 Toolbox, and more.

Children and youth need a community that:  encourages achievement and builds self-esteem; promotes healthy lifestyles, fitness, and activity; teaches in a classroom without walls; instills appreciation, respect, and responsibility for the natural world around them; and inspires the confidence and courage to become the leaders of tomorrow.

A Voice for Excellence

Preserving the rich history of the camp experience is essential for the future. The American Camp Association (ACA) is proud to celebrate our 100th Anniversary in 2010 and the 150th Anniversary of Organized Camping in 2011, and to honor our past with this Web-based tribute.

The Call to Consistency

The new marketing tools are designed to help you convey the value of accreditation to a public ready to hear about how Fun and Safety can co-exist at camp; how ACA Camps Set the Standard; and how new marketing language, presented consistently over time, can give your camp the edge . . . .

As you prepare to use the new accredited-camp logo, preview ACA’s new image, for background information.

Next, you will find usage guidelines, instructions, and useful links to help portray the new image of ACA and the value of accreditation consistently not only in your materials but in all materials produced by camps nationally. In addition, each revised marketing tool reflects new and contemporary language, which will help all camps consistently communicate the positive impacts and value of camp.

ACA urges all camps to incorporate this new language as well as the new logo and brand.
