At any one site the member should not offer more than two of the activities on the Adventurous Activities list. If it does, then the member will be viewed as an adventure activity centre (see below). Daycamp members cannot be recommended for the Adventuremark or LOtC Quality Badge.

Inspection Fees
The Head Office will be inspected annually along with 25% of the member's remaining sites operating in the current season. Some of the inspections will be unannounced spot-checks. Failure at one site puts the member’s accreditation on hold pending resolution.
