AFRICAN CHRISTIAN CAMPING (ACC)
African Christian Camping (ACC) is a network of individual and corporate camp practitioners committed to promoting adventure programming and camping to its optimum potential in Sub-Saharan Africa, beginning with the East African region. We believe that camp programming done well can be a kingpin to maximizing the potential of this generation of youth and children. ACC networks those who do camping on our continent, connects them with likeminded others around the world, and provides a platform for sharing of resources and skills. ACC is the 19th full member of Christian Camping International represented in over 60 countries around the world.

The fire is the main comfort of the camp, whether in summer or winter, and is about as ample at one season as at another. It is as well for cheerfulness as for warmth and dryness.
