USA TODAY's Camp Today

ACA Connect
www.ACAcamps.org/connect
ACA has established a program to connect camps and companies with appropriate, ACA pre-screened free products. ACA is regularly contacted by companies and corporations that have materials, products, and other resources available for camps FREE of charge. Some of the products are:

  • food items
  • games
  • arts and crafts supplies
  • posters
  • sports equipment
  • educational materials


ACA Purchase Power

www.ACAcamps.org/purchasepower
ACA is beginning the process of negotiating directly with manufacturers of products regularly used by camps such as boat makers, paper/office supplies, tennis balls, basketballs, life preservers, etc. By combining our purchasing power, ACA camps could realize huge bulk pricing . . . 10,000 case (combined purchase power) pricing on copy paper as opposed to 5 case (individual camp purchase power) pricing.
