Are you manually tracking camper check-ins on multiple pieces of paper and trying to keep everything organized? Then the Check-In feature is for you!

This feature allows you to check in Attendees, Staff and Guest Groups using a simple interface. As people arrive, you can confirm their housing, pay off a balance due, check-in medications, upload a photo and assign a wristband to use in SalesLink or Heath Center.

One of the challenges facing anyone who sends someone away to camp or a retreat is knowing that they got there safely. Check-In allows your staff to verify that someone has arrived at an event and automatically notify the relevant people when that occurs.
