Are there really new laws for camps in California?

Question posted from Jill in San Diego

Hi Jill,

Great question, especially given the fact most CAMP DIRECTORS don't even know about the new regulations affecting organized camps in California. We've had the same laws for about 50 years, and now they've finally been updated to be more reflective of today's camps and campers.

The laws and regulations are fairly involved. So here's a link to the main excerpts from the American Camp Association in PDF format. Any further questions, please feel free to ask.
