Summer 2020: American Camp Association Survey Open
CampCounts 2020 is part of the ACA Research Team’s annual efforts to learn about camps and the communities they serve. We use what you share to expand the value and visibility of all kinds of camp experiences for all young people, adults, and families.
You matter, your camp community matters, and understanding your summer 2020 story is important to how we serve campers and their families into 2021 and beyond. With your help, we can tell the camp story of summer 2020 and chart an evidence-informed path to summer 2021. Your input is critical! Whether you ran on-site camp programs, provided virtual programming, you sent camp in a box, or simply started planning for summer 2021 — no matter what your summer 2020 story might be — you count.
Plan to spend about 30 minutes on the survey. Your responses are anonymous; you and your camp are not identifiable in any way. You will be able to access the results for free at www.acacamps.org in November 2020.
To help you prepare, check out this overview to see what information you might want to have available. You can save your survey and respond at a later time; however, given the length of the survey, it might be difficult to complete on a smartphone. Please submit only one response per camp.
