EMAILS & PHOTOS
At Camp Merrie-Woode, we know how important it is to stay connected with your daughter while she is away. We’ve outlined the different ways families can communicate throughout the summer, and parents can also look forward to receiving emails and photos that capture everyday moments of camp life. From time spent outdoors to new friendships and adventures, it’s a chance to see the memories your daughter is making along the way.
We highly recommend sending handwritten letters to your daughter while she is at Camp. Letters should be addressed as
follows:
Camper Name
Camp Merrie-Woode
100 Merrie-Woode Road
Sapphire, NC 28774
Please keep in mind that the mail moves slowly, and you might not receive an immediate response.
Emails
Parents have the option to send their daughter emails through the CampInTouch Parent Portal. Each day, we will print, fold, and distribute camper emails to the mailboxes where campers receive their letters. Your daughter will not have computer access to send emails back. The purchase of CampStamps is required to send emails to your camper. Additional information about the CampInTouch email feature will be sent in our pre-Camp parent communication emails.
We do not accept emails through the Camp Office email accounts for delivery to your daughter. Telephone and camp email accounts are used for camp business and in the event of an emergency only. Campers may not make or receive phone calls.
Photos
Photos will be uploaded daily to CampInTouch. While you can access all photos online, we recommend downloading the Campanion App. Through Campanion, parents have the option to enable facial recognition to create specific albums of their daughter daily. Parents will still have access to all photos posted during the session.
