Online Summer Camp Technology

No more dreary letters from reluctant camp kids. Daily password-protected e-mail service between parents and children is the new internet alternative. And e-mail is only the beginning of the revolution in summer camp communications. Now, videos of camp children are packaged and posted to online parents through a process called ‘streaming’. Electronic-savvy camps can place video cameras at key sites – the waterfront and mess hall – add a roaming video camera to capture cabin life and relay these virtual images to online parents. For every market there is a supplier, and eCamp, based in Lakeville, CT is a state-of-the art provider of camping technology. This innovator in camp communications sets up sorting and delivering email management services for camps and offers posting services for photos and daily news. Parents and children can share in the camp experience though a safe internet site secured with firewall and technical support. E-mail and video streaming might seem obtrusive to the uninitiated, but users of eCamp understand the value of the new technology to summer fun. Children enjoy the opportunity to contact parents daily through e-mail and video, and a virtual relationship is fostered with friends and family. eCamp helps share the joy of camp. Online and upward we go! Stephen Winbaum is the Communications Coordinator for MySummerCamps.com
