Invite a State legislator to tour your camp.
Tell them about your camp, the services you
provide, the geographic distribution of your
campers, and educate them on the ACA accreditation
process. Let them know what is on your mind.
A legislator's views on bills are often impacted
by meeting and hearing directly from employers
and businesses in their legislative districts.
This is why ACA-NJ encourages all member
camps to participate in our Site Visit Program.
For more information e-mail Mary Ellen at executive@ACAcampsnj.org.
Hosting legislators at your camp creates
at least four tangible benefits:
- It shows the economic and social contributions
your company makes to New Jersey by showcasing
the services you provide to NJ's
children and the people you employ.
- It
provides you and the legislator with the
opportunity to establish a working relationship.
- It helps your legislator-who is barraged
by countless issues and interest groups-understand
your concerns more clearly.
- It allows you
to demonstrate how a proposed new law or
regulation would affect the operation of
your camp, specifically.
