1 American Camp Association Standards Update Course Participant Handout Packet

3 Mandatory Standard Introduced in 2016 Number HR.8.B (between standards HR.8 and HR.9) Title ONE ON ONE CAMPER/STAFF INTERACTION (Mandatory) HR.8.B.1 Does the camp provide training to all staff to minimize the potential of any staff member being in a one on one camper/staff situation when out of sight of others. AND/OR HR.8.B.2 Does the camp advise rental groups to provide training to all staff to minimize the potential of any rental group personnel being in a one on one camper/personnel situation when out of sight of others. Contextual Education Appropriate supervision and interaction between campers and staff are key to camper/staff safety. Policies and staff training should be provided to all camp staff (counselors, administrative, and support staff) to make them aware of the need to avoid situations where they might be in a one onone situation with a camper. This includes: Restroom and shower protocols Healthcare setting protocols Protocols for when special needs campers need personal care assistance Desire/need for staff/camper 1:1 conversations Program design Methods to consider are: operating with rule of three, being in auditory or visual range if a situation does require 1:1 interaction, and providing settings that are in the sight of others yet not in the middle of it all. ACA resources include Spring 2014 CampLine article ( 2014/supervision) and the recorded webinar Camper Supervision Under the Microscope: What Your Staff Are Staff Missing and What You Can Do About It. Compliance Demonstration Written documentation: Training schedule, which indicates when this training occurred Visitor interview: Director description of what was covered during the training Visitor observation: Groups of campers/staff during tour the camp and program Modes All (c)2015 American camping Association, Inc.

4 Standards Changes Introduced in 2016 Visits New Standard HR.8.B ONE ON ONE CAMPER/STAFF INTERACTION (Mandatory) HR.8.B.1: Does the camp provide training to all staff to minimize the potential of any staff member being in a one on one camper/staff situation when out of sight of others. AND/OR HR.8.B.2 Does the camp advise rental groups to provide training to all staff to minimize the potential of any rental group personnel being in a one on one camper/personnel situation when out of sight of others. Missing Four (4) or More Mandatory Standards Any camp that misses four or more mandatory standards will be required to have a complete visit the following summer, even if the Immediate Corrective Action (ICA) is accepted. Why the change? The National Standards Commission judges that camps are fully aware of all mandatory standards and the need for these standards to be continually met, and therefore this is an appropriate action to help maintain and strengthen the integrity of ACA accreditation. Other NSC Changes Effective 2016 Effective as of 2016, when any change/revision to standards is made (mandatory or not), the change/revision will become effective in the next season. In the past, only mandatory standards were effective immediately, and all other changes/revisions were effective on the camp s next visit. As ACA moves to a 5 year visit cycle, potentially waiting 5 years for a camp to come into compliance with any standards is too long. Be Sure You Have a Current APG! Look at Your Pages Page 95 HW.24 Health Screening for Resident Camp Staff Delete HW.24.1 B 3, the requirement for healthcare staff to collect staff medication. Page 126 HR.3 Hiring Policies Add to Contextual Education to clarify to whom standard HR.3.3 applies, and add mandatory requirement for criminal background check for yearround staff (every five years). Page 177 PD.29.3 Protective Headgear Add DNA PD29.3 does not apply when climbing on a manufactured climbing walls that use an auto belay system (Effective immediately. It is at the discretion of the camp should they use helmets on a wall with this type of belay system.) Posted April Page 179 PD.31.5 Safety Apparel Add DNA PD.31.5 does not apply for ear protection for air rifle and BB guns. (c)2015 American camping Association, Inc. (revised 2016) 2

9 Planning the Day of the Visit The Tour This worksheet can help you organize the tour of your facility and program areas during your on site ACA Visit. When to go to various areas depends on your camp s daily schedule. Use this page as a guide to help you plan an agenda for your volunteer visitors. You may also use the resources at visit. Best time for the visitors to arrive: Where to meet: Where visitors park: Do visitors need to bring lunch? Any other things visitors should know? (Dress code, nametags required, etc.) Kitchen/Dining Hall Visit with the food service director. Observe some food service preparation or clean up, washing dishes, refrigeration units, etc. Health Center Meet the healthcare supervisor, ask questions about daily routines, and see health center. View logs, forms, medication storage, etc. Living Quarters Show visitors a sampling of different types, units, etc. Plan a time when you can avoid disturbing guests or cabin groups. Visitors do not tour residences of directors, caretakers, etc. Restrooms Show different types, including central washrooms or shower buildings, smaller units within camper cabins, etc. Vehicles Show a sampling of vehicles. Check for emergency equipment, logs, etc. Transportation Pick up or drop off areas. Show how traffic is controlled. Maintenance Area Show placement of power tools and hazardous materials. Review blueprints or site maps if they are kept here. Pool/Lake/Aquatic Activities Ideally, visitors should see the aquatic activities taking place and have an opportunity to meet and visit with the aquatic supervisor. Show all aquatic areas including swimming, boating, etc. Specialized Activities Visitors will want to visit with a key person in these areas and see these activities in operation. If an activity happens only in the afternoon, it s fine to take a break from scoring to go and observe. Overnights and Trips 3 days, 2 nights or fewer Horseback Riding Adventure/Challenge High and low ropes course elements, climbing walls (natural or constructed), rappelling, group initiatives, zip lines, etc. Target Sports Riflery, archery Bicycling Boarding or Skating Activities Shop/Crafts/Arts These are not always specialized activities, but they can be Go carts, ATVs Camp Craft/Outdoor Skills Fire building, outdoor cooking, etc. Other: Trip and Travel Trips of 3 nights or more. Consider showing visitors where trips depart, allow visitors to interview a key person. They will understand it is difficult to actually see the group American Camping Association, Inc. 7
10 Unique Scoring Situations Who s Responsible? Staffed Public Facility Standards / Camps that Rent to Others Staffed Public Facility Standards What You Need to Know The key to making the decision about the necessity of scoring staffed public facility standards is for the camp director to answer the question, Do I have total control of how the activity is conducted and for supervision of the staff in this activity? If the camp does not have these controls, for purposes of scoring the standards, the camp is using a staffed public facility, even if the facility is not used by the general public or is managed by the camp s own sponsoring organization. Do you score the staffed public facility standards in the following situations? Yes or No 1. I take my campers to a horseback riding stable in a nearby town. My staff members go along to help the campers get on the horses. 2. I take my campers to a swimming pool run by my own organization. My staff members do not lifeguard. 3. I take my campers canoeing on a nearby river, renting canoes from a river concessionaire. My staff members lead the trip. 4. I take my campers to a neighboring camp to use their ropes course. My fellow camp director generously provides his staff to lead the program. 5. I take my campers to a state park to go swimming. There is a ranger, and we pay a fee to use the park. My staff members serve as the lifeguards. Standards for Camps that Rent to Others Mode of Operation What You Need to Know The standards applicable to the Camps that Rent to Others mode of operation are scored when camps operate in the role of landlord. If a camp rents or leases facilities from another organization on which to run their own program, they will never score this mode. Do you score standards for Camps that Rent to Others mode in the following situations? Yes or No 1. I run my camp program at a rented ACA accredited camp facility. 2. I lease my camp to other organizations on weekends in the spring and fall. 3. I run weekend programs for my camper families in the fall. 4. Groups within my organization come to camp on weekends to do their own programs American Camping Association, Inc. Revised Fall
11 A Quiz About the Visit TRUE/FALSE 1. The lead visitor decides when the visit will be and notifies the camp within 10 days of the visit. 2. If a camp misses a mandatory standard, the camp has 7 days to submit documentation verifying compliance to the ACA administrative office of immediate correction before losing accreditation. 3. In nonvisit years, to maintain accreditation, camps continue to adhere to all applicable standards. 4. Camps are required to complete a Camp Self Assessment (review of a set of 20 selected standards) prior to their visit. 5. Insurance policies, contracts, and/or letters of confirmation of coverage may be located off site such as at the main year round office. 6. In nonvisit years in order to maintain accreditation, camps are required to complete an Annual Accreditation Report, sign a Statement of Compliance, and remain current in camp membership fees. In nonvisit years in order to maintain accreditation, camps are required to complete an Annual Accreditation Report, sign a Statement of Compliance, and remain current in camp membership fees American Camping Association, Inc. 9
