At CampDoc.com, we’re continuing our mission to improve the health and safety at camps, and are now working to combat homesickness with the introduction of CampGrams!
Campers eagerly await mail call every day, and when they receive letters from home, it helps them feel connected to family and friends. Letters are one of the most effective treatments to cure homesickness. With CampGrams from CampDoc.com families can easily send one-way messages to their campers so they instantly feel connected to home.
We’ve had an incredible response to our free online camp registration over the last few years, and have had hundreds of our camps transition to CampDoc.com as their standalone software system. We’ve listened to your feedback, and you’ve told us that the one remaining area you’re still using from third-party camp software providers was their one-way parent email service (e.g. BunkNotes). We are hopeful that with the addition of CampGrams, you’ll now be able to keep all things camp in one place, streamlining the process for you and your families!
- Families will be able to type and submit CampGrams through their existing CampDoc.com account, and view a history of previously submitted notes.
- Camps will be able to filter, download and print CampGrams directly from the provider portal, so they can easily distribute them to campers by session, program, or cabin.
- There is no cost to camps to use this service, and the cost to the family is essentially the same as a postage stamp, only $0.50 per CampGram.
We are planning to pilot this new service with the first 50 camps to email us. We’ve spent tons of time researching and developing CampGrams, and are looking for these pilot camps to give us extra feedback and help us refine the features of this new service even further. Both camps using our online registration system, as well as camps that are only using our electronic health record are eligible to pilot CampGrams this summer.
If you have any questions or would like a further explanation about this new feature, feel free to email or call your account manager.
