WCA Code of Ethics




I recognize that everyone will judge all Wisconsin Campers Association members by my own actions, and therefore:

At all times, I shall:

  • Strive in every way to promote a favorable public image for the WCA and all of its members.
  • Avoid displaying WCA insignia except when I am complying in all respects with the Code of Ethics of the WCA

While camping I shall:

  • Comply with all the rules of the campgrounds in which I stay.
  • Respect the rights of private property owners.
  • Set up my camp so that I do not interfere with others, and respect the privacy of others.
  • Avoid damaging trees, shrubs, or other natural beauty in any way.
  • Extinguish all campfires, matches, cigarettes, cigars, and pipe tobacco.
  • Dispose of rubbish, garbage, dish water, sewerage and all other refuse in proper places only.
  • Leave my campsite as clean as, or cleaner than I found it.
  • Not pollute streams, lakes and other water supplies.

While traveling on the highway with my camping equipment, I shall:

  • Neither speed, nor drive recklessly, nor operate my car in any unsafe manner or unsafe mechanical condition.
  • Neither discard litter, nor burning or smoking material of any sort, either while moving or parked, from my vehicle.
  • Aid and assist any other WCA member in difficulty, when so requested by such member, to the best of my ability.
  • Avoid having my trailer or camper become a road-block to any other vehicle; pull off of narrow highways periodically if I see a string of cars following my trailer or camper; avoid traveling in a group with more than two (2) others, and when traveling with other trailers or campers allow sufficient room between to allow two (2) cars to pass in between.
  • Carry sufficient insurance on my equipment to protect others in the event of an accident.
  • Have with my camping equipment one (1) operable fire extinguisher approved by the Fire Underwriters.
  • Use caution and all safety devices with L.P. gas bottles, gasoline heaters and lanterns as may be necessary for avoidance of fire or explosion.
