Camp Walden

Accreditation

Since its founding in 1970, Walden has earned the seal of the Ontario Camps Association (O.C.A.) in recognition of excellence.

Any camp seeking O.C.A. accreditation must undergo a two-year provisional period, during which time it is visited by O.C.A. representatives annually, and must meet the association's standards before being accepted for full membership. Once a camp achieves full membership, it receives a visit every four years, or the year following a change of site, ownership or director.

Our camps voluntarily adhere to over 400 separate standards dealing with all aspects of a camp's operation: health & safety, leadership, food service and maintenance, staffing, programming, and administration.

As Camp Walden celebrates over 35 summers, we are strong believers in the principles of the O.C.A. particularly in the regular and thorough examination of all member camps.
