Making A Difference

The Camp Owners and Directors Association was created to help forward-thinking camp directors discuss and share best business practices with the goal of running camp more effectively and efficiently. We collaborate year-round to review and exchange ideas — from industry regulations to staff training techniques to program development. All CODA members benefit from these shared resources.

CODA’s goal is simple — better camping through better business. Our organization is focused on helping YOU, the camp owner and director, run a better camp.
