Introducing the All-New "Camp Moments" - Revolutionizing Photo Sharing

We're excited to introduce "Camp Moments," an innovative photo-sharing feature exclusively available for our Gold and Platinum subscribers.

"Camp Moments" allows program administrators to share precious camp memories with families directly through our platform. Just a click, and parents receive a secure link to view and download the photos. It accepts all standard formats (.jpg, .png) and even the more complex iPhone format (.heic). Better still, our platform compresses the images to ensure easy sharing and downloading.

But that's not all! This feature is paired with an advanced security protocol that protects photos behind a unique 4-digit pin. Families can access the memories simply and securely, thanks to Camps With Friends.

Exciting times are ahead as we're launching a Facial Recognition feature later this year. This game-changing addition will automatically notify parents when new photos of their children are uploaded.

Experience the future of photo sharing with "Camp Moments"—because every camp memory is worth treasuring!
