About the O.C.A
Now in their 77th year, the Ontario Camps Association (OCA) has played an important leadership role in promoting and encouraging children and youth camping in Ontario. The OCA is a voluntary, non-profit organization that draws its membership from camps, individuals and like-minded organizations and agencies, all devoted to maintaining high standards for organized camping, and to sharing information and ideas that maintain these standards.

The OCA takes pride in their history while positively looking forward to the future. Their website: http://www.ontariocamps.ca/

Standards
Camping professionals exchange information and ideas during OCA Standards visits. These visits, which form the core of the OCA's accreditation program, ensure that high standards of practice are in place at all OCA member camps.

Camp membership in the OCA is not automatic: any camp seeking OCA accreditation must undergo a two-year provisional period, during which time it is visited by OCA representatives each year, and must meet their standards before being accepted for full membership. Once a camp achieves full membership, it receives a visit every four years, or the year following a change of site, ownership or director. Our camps voluntarily adhere to over 400 separate standards dealing with all aspects of a camp's operation: health & safety, leadership, food service and maintenance, staffing, programming, and administration.

The OCA Standards Committee regularly reviews and revises standards when appropriate.
