#CampApps2025

A brand new look and technology, putting all-things-camp right at your fingertips!  We are working to get all six camps onto the new App platform.  You will no longer need to download and install the app from the Google Play store or Apple store — we are using a new web-app technology! 

View the User Guide for full details (or scroll down to the Android or iOS sections below), but installing the app on any device (phone, tablet or PC) is as simple as:

  1. Navigating the the App Link (from Chrome on Android/PC or Safari on iOS). 
  2. Browse around the site for a while (~4 clicks), and your device (phone/tablet) will automatically ask you to “install” or “add to home screen” the app – SAY YES!  
  3. Then open the app and click some more (~8 clicks), and when it asks you to “allow notifications”, SAY YES! *.  

* Notifications will be used to communicate program changes, weather/situational emergencies, and other timely information while you are at camp.  You can disable the notifications on your device using the normal App notification permissions.  Be sure to enable your notifications prior to your arrival at camp.  Say yes initially to add that permission, and then you can turn on/off the notifications in your device app settings.

Camp App Links

NOTE:  As of April 2025, the Camp Apps are still under construction.  Content will continue to be added over the next month or two as it becomes available.

Android

  1. Using Chrome (cannot be another browser, even if it is built on Chrome), go to the Camp App’s link.
  2. You have two options for “installing” the app – manually or prompted.
    • Prompted: If you navigate around the app – reading FOUR different pages/events will prompt you with a “Do you want to install this app?” or “Install app”.  Choose to Install.
    • Manually: After going to the page, you can choose to install.  Use the three dots menu in the upper right and choose “Add to Home Screen”. It will ask if you want to install the app.

To receive push notifications from the App, you can wait for it to prompt you to allow Notifications, or you can turn them on.  After 8 “actions” in the app (viewing screens, navigating around), it will pop up and ask you if you want to Allow Notifications.  Choose Allow to receive the notifications.  You can also manually configure this using your device’s native Notification settings options.

FAQ

No.  The App is another method of communication for when a unit is onsite at one of our camp facilities.

During the Summer Camp season, the Camp Apps will have links to the Leaders’ Guides, Camp Menus, Schedules of events, and other useful information that a Unit Leader would like to have at his/her fingertips.

All year long the Camp Apps provide links to various maps, resources, upcoming events, camp contacts, and weather forecasts.  In addition, there is a Feedback section that allows you to report Facility issues and give feedback on camp staff.

Nope!  Free!

No!  Use your Device’s normal methods for Enabling and Disabling notifications.  You still have all of the functionality of the App without the notifications.  Next time you are at camp, simply re-enable the notifications.

For some links, yes, but for others no.  It caches a lot of the content, but some of the links are to external resources (campership form, registration forms, Facebook, Google photos, etc.).

Nope.  During the non-summer camp months, the Camp Apps are redesigned to have the information you’d need to have a successful trip to our camps.  If your unit is looking for events or facility rental at your camp, you can access that information from the App — as well as off-season schedules, maps, and camp contacts.
