FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How do I view pictures?
Follow the instructions above except, after registering, simply sign in and click on the Photo Gallery button. Photos are kept in folders found on the left side of the page below the words “Image Folders”. Click on any folder to see the pictures within that folder. You can even purchase prints or other photo gifts (e.g., t-shirts, mugs) of your favorite pictures! There is no cost to view pictures.  Please note; all picture transactions are through Bunk-1.   

How do I send a Bunk Note (one-way email) to my camper?
Follow the instructions above except, after registering, simply sign in and click on the Bunk Notes button. Enter your camper’s name, select the correct cabin, type your message, and hit the “Send” button.

What are Bunk Note credits?
Bunk Note credits are what you purchase in order to send e-mails. Each Bunk Note you send deducts 1 credit from your account. Bunk Note credits can also be used to add fun 'extras' like Borders, Pictures, and Word Games to your e-mails. Bunk Note credits cost $1 each and are purchased in packs of various sizes.

Can other relatives use these services?
Certainly. Once you have set up your account, you will be able to invite other people to access these services.

Why do I have to pay to send Bunk Notes (one-way email)?
Each morning, the Bunk Notes system bundles and sorts the messages for us to print out and distribute to campers. It also protects us from computer viruses and allows us to easily manage these emails. Your payment helps us cover the cost of the system, paper, ink, and labor and, more importantly, frees us to do what we do best – be with your kids! Bunk Note credits cost $1 each and are purchased in packs of various sizes.

What do I do if I lost my user name and password?
You can get it online by going to www.Bunk1.com and clicking on the link "Lost Your Password?" (to the left of the page below the sign in button). You will receive an email with your user name and password within a few minutes
