The ocean can be safe, fun and a great source of recreation, but it demands respect, too. We have a 100% safety record and intend to keep it that way, so rest
assured we go overboard to protect your child's safety. Here's how.
1. Aloha Beach Camp is 100% accredited by the American Camp Association.
This means we meet or exceed up to 300 best-practice industry standards relative to camp programming, transportation, safety,
supervision and more. If the camp you're considering is not accredited, ask the camp director why.
2. We require our counselors to be certified lifeguards.
This is a fundamental condition of employment.
3. We teach sun and ocean safety clinics to every camper, every day.
Your child will learn about rip currents, dangerous shore break, high surf, the risks of diving into shallow water
and other potentially hazardous beach and ocean conditions. Sunscreen is applied liberally throughout the day,
plus we provide large umbrellas and canopies for maximum shade and comfort.
4. Ice water is available all day, every day.
Dehydration can be a problem if you don't stay on top of it. That's why we make ice water available for the kids
all day and remind them to drink it...even if they're not thirsty!
5. We establish our daily campsite area with bright orange cones, right next to the open lifeguard tower.
Campers may not leave this coned-off boundary without a counselor. The cones also send a "KEEP OUT" message
to strangers.
6. We maintain camper-to-counselor ratios as low as 3:1
The ratio is often less when the kids are in the water.
7. We also enforce these additional mandatory safety rules:

| First thing in the morning everyday, our staff and campers meet for a 15-minute ocean safety assembly where we discuss the day's ocean conditions, camp safety rules and more. |
| Aloha Beach Camp kids wear color coded wristbands everyday at camp. The colors designate how deep we'll allow kids to swim in the water. Our counselors swim side-by-side with the kids, and no one is allowed to go deeper than their waist. |
| Campers spend as much (or more) of the camp day in the shade as they do in the water and sun. |
