When it comes to choosing a beach camp for your child, the importance of picking an accredited program cannot be overstated. While many camps may claim membership in organizations such as the ACA (American Camp Association), it is essential to recognize that ACA accreditation is the gold standard.

Aloha Beach Camp stands out as the best example of the significance of selecting an accredited beach camp. In this article, we will explore why accreditation matters and why Aloha Beach Camp's dedication to maintaining the highest standards sets it apart.

Assurance of Safety and Quality 

Accreditation provides a vital assurance of safety and quality in a beach camp. Accredited camps like Aloha Beach Camp undergo rigorous evaluations to ensure compliance with industry standards for program quality, health, safety, and staff qualifications. By choosing an accredited camp, parents can have peace of mind, knowing that their child's well-being and overall camp experience are prioritized.

Professional Staff and Expertise

Our programs are designed to promote personal growth, character building and the development of essential life skills. Through structured water and sand activities, team-building exercises, and leadership opportunities, campers are empowered to develop confidence, resilience, and a sense of responsibility.

Adherence to Industry Best Practices 

ACA Accreditation signifies that a beach camp adheres to industry best practices. Accredited camps follow comprehensive policies and procedures that cover such areas as health and safety protocols, emergency preparedness, risk management, and staff training. These standards ensure camp operations are conducted in a responsible and professional manner.

Transparency and Accountability 

Accredited beach camps prioritize transparency and accountability. They maintain clear communication channels with parents, provide detailed information about their programs, policies, and procedures, and are responsive to inquiries and concerns. Accredited camps like Aloha Beach Camp are committed to open dialogue with parents, fostering trust and establishing a strong partnership in the best interest of the campers.

Make Sure You Choose an Accredited Camp!
When choosing a summer camp camp for your child -- especially camps taking place in aquatic settings like Aloha Beach Camp -- selecting an accredited program like Aloha is of utmost importance.
Accreditation provides the assurance of safety, quality, and professionalism parents seek in a camp experience.

Aloha Beach Camp's In-Person Open Houses Are Done for the Year, But Our Online Open House Is Just as Good, If Not Better!

If you're looking for a fun and exciting summer camp experience, Aloha Beach Camp is the perfect place to be. Our beach day camp is located on Zuma Beach in Malibu, California, and is the ideal spot for children and teenagers to enjoy the sun, sand, and surf while making new friends and having the time of their lives.

If you were hoping to attend one of our formal/organized in-person open houses at Zuma Beach, we regret to inform you that they are done for the year. However, we've got great news! We're hosting an online open house on Monday, May 8th, at 7:30 PM on Google Meet.

While in-person open houses have their benefits, we believe that our online open house is just as good, if not better. Here are a few reasons why:

  1. Convenience: One of the biggest advantages of an online open house is that you can participate from the comfort of your own home. You don't have to worry about driving to a physical location, finding parking, or dealing with traffic. You can simply log in to Google Meet from your computer, tablet, or smartphone and join us.
  2. Interactive: Our online open house is designed to be interactive and engaging. You'll have the opportunity to meet our staff, ask questions, and learn about our camp programs. We'll also share pictures and videos that will give you a feel for what our beach day camp is all about.
  3. Safety: We understand that many families are still concerned about the pandemic and may not feel comfortable attending an in-person event. With our online open house, you don't have to worry about being exposed to large crowds or risking your health. You can participate in a safe and secure environment.
  4. Accessible: Our online open house is accessible to everyone, regardless of their location. Whether you live in California, across the country, or even in another part of the world, you can join us and learn about our beach day camp. This makes it easier for families who may not have been able to attend an in-person event.

At Aloha Beach Camp, we believe that our online open house is just as good, if not better, than our in-person events. So mark your calendar for Monday, May 8th, at 7:30 PM and join us on Google Meet. We can't wait to meet you, answer your questions, and share our passion for beach day camp with you!
