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

ACA's Because of Camp…™ outdoor advertising campaign officially launched in early January. Since that time, orders have been arriving daily for billboards, posters, and transit shelters. Several orders have been placed already, and are being shipped to vendors nationwide. Visit ACA's Say It Big Web page to view a map of advertising placements as they are confirmed.

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.

Membership Model Took Effect July 1, 2008

In ACA's new membership system, everyone has access to the same great resources and learning opportunities at the same individual membership rate of $200. And, if you qualify for a Visitor, Retiree, or Student rate, you receive a further discount and still receive the same exceptional benefits as individual members enjoy.

The membership discounted rates are as follows:

Visitors

$95

Retirees

$60

Student

$35 (As an added benefit, exclusively for students, national conference registration is FREE!)

ACA will grandfather all members who are currently (effective 2/1/08) receiving a discount as a "volunteer" into the new system at the Visitors discounted rate of $95.

If you're curious about your renewal date or have specific questions about how the change will impact your dues or services, be sure to contact Rachel at membership@ACAcamps.org.

For more info about membership, call ACA at 800-428 CAMP (2267) or e-mail Membership.
