How do I send an e-letter (one way email) to my camper?
Simply sign in and click on the Email button. Your camper’s name should appear. Type your message and hit the Send button.
Emails are printed Monday - Friday at 3:00 pm. Any emails sent after 3:00 pm will be delivered to your camper the following day. All e-letters to campers are covered in the camp tuition.
How do I receive letters from my camper?
Campers can bring pre-addressed, stamped envelopes and stationary to write home letters. Your camper can also participate in the eLetter program. eLetters offer an easy way for your child to send letters from camp back to parents. Each page of eLetter stationery has a unique, printed barcode. Send an “eLetter stack” with your camper before they leave home. Using this option, parents can print a stack of eLetter stationery (up to 20 individual pages at a time) within their CampInTouch account.
Here is how you can receive letters quickly from your camper! Make sure to check out the tips below:
1) Log into your CampInTouch account and click on “Email”.
2) Select your camper(s) and write an email. At the bottom, there will be a checkbox next to the following sentence “I would like a handwritten eLetter reply to this email.” If you check this box, a blank sheet with a barcode will print out after your email. Your camper will receive your email AND the reply sheet.
4) Your camper will have the ability to write back this way instead of snail mail. They will turn it in with the rest of their bunk’s mail. Once we receive it from the camper, it will be scanned into CampInTouch. The barcode will make sure it goes to the right parent account.
5) Your account will let you know when an e-letter is available.
6) In order to read the eLetter, you will need to purchase CampStamps.
