Our staff training adheres to the standards set by the American Camp Association. You can trust that your child will have a secure and delightful experience at 4-H Camp!
National Accreditation
National Accreditation
Virginia's 4-H camping program stands out nationally as a frontrunner in 4-H camping initiatives. The six Virginia 4-H Educational Centers have attained and upheld accreditation from the American Camp Association (ACA).
Parents and guardians are encouraged to seek the ACA seal when choosing a camp for their child. Approximately 25 percent of camps nationwide hold ACA accreditation, making it the esteemed camp accreditation body in the United States. ACA accreditation signifies that a camp meets the highest benchmarks for safety, food service, staffing, healthcare, and program quality.
Each 4-H Educational Center consistently upholds these standards annually. Moreover, all 300 standards are subject to review every three years for reaccreditation. Every staff member of the 4-H center program, alongside adult and teen 4-H volunteers participating in the camp, undergoes rigorous selection and comprehensive training before the camping event
