Do you find ACA, NY & NJ professional development conferences a great way to share ideas and network with other camp professionals? In an effort to reach more staff and enhance the experience of all attendees, we are offering a "Refer a Friend" promotion! We are encouraging member camps to reach out to programs that have never been to one of our events. First time attendees will receive a 50% discount for our fall conferences and the camp that referred them will be given $20 off their 2019 Tri-State registration! If you know of an afterschool organization in your area, a camp that isn't engaged with ACA, NY & NJ, or a colleague involved in youth programming, please invite them to join us at an upcoming event! The coupon below can be filled out by the attendee and submitted to the ACA, NY & NJ office. Programs should be sure to list the person who provided the coupon, in order for the person to receive credit for this year's Tri-State CAMP Conference. Thank you for your continued support of ACA, NY & NJ and our mission to provide opportunities to the camp community.
Many of our events and conferences can earn you Continuing Education Credits (CECs).
