Annual Camp in the News video is coming your way! - Brief Article

Camping Magazine, March, 2002

The 2001 Camp in the News video featuring major news coverage about camp in 2001 is being mailed to all ACA-accredited camps in March. The video is a compilation of media footage ranging from local to national news about camp.

Remember to send us your news videos or newspaper clips for possible publication in the 2002 Camp in the News video. The ACA national office wants to track media coverage year round at camps across the country. Show us your story, and we'll share it with your peers.

ACA is also in need of your camp's promotional video for potential use by the media. We need to build a bigger library of camp footage to share with the media. Send a letter confirming you have model releases on file for identifiable subjects along with your video. With your permission, we often disperse camp footage to the media to enhance new stories about camp. Who knows? Your camp's footage might just show up on Good Morning, America!

Submit your videos to Public Relations, American Camping Association, 5000 State Road 67 North, Martinsville, IN 46151-7902. Please call 765-342-8456, ext. 339, or e-mail kbruno@ACAcamps.org with any questions you may have.
