Bunk Scheduling - Segments
Adding Cycles to a Segment
Cycles represent a date range within camp in which Periods and Activities take place.
Cycles can be as short as one day or as long as you would like.
To add a Cycle to a Segment, click " +Add cycle... "
A pop-up window will appear which asks you for the:
- Name of the Cycle
- Start date of the Cycle
- End date of the Cycle
- Hit Submit to add the Cycle to the Segment
The Cycles you have added to this Segment will show up in chronological order, by start date.
Copying Activities to another Segment
Copying Activities to another Segment allows you to quickly duplicate Activities from one Segment to the next without having to enter all of the Activities again.
Within the Segment Management page, click "Copy activities from this segment..."
A pop-up window will appear that asks you where you would like to copy activities from this segment to.
- Choose the Destination Segment from the drop-down list
- Click "Copy these activities" to copy to the Destination Segment.
"Activities copied successfully!" will appear in a green box at the top of the screen.
Adding Activities to a Segment
Adding Activities to a Segment allows you to make these Activities available within specific Periods of a Cycle.

Adding Divisions to a Segment
Adding Divisions to a Segment allows you to assign the Bunks within the chosen Division to any Activities within the Cycle.

Managing Segments
Managing Segments is the second step in the Bunk Scheduling process. Now that you've created your Segment, we need to add the Divisions, Activities, and Cycles that comprise the Segment.
Choose the Segment you would like to manage by clicking on the Segment icon, to the left of the Segment Name.
Divisions, Activities, Cycles
The Segment Management page will now appear where you will be able to manage your:
- Divisions assigned to this Segment
- Activities available for this Segment
- Cycles for this Segment
Creating Segments
Creating Segments is the first step in the Bunk Scheduling process. Segments are created per Session and contain all of the information related to Divisions, Activities, Cycles and Periods.
Segments can be created for any portion of your camp and are most typically broken out by age groups, i.e. Junior Camp and Senior Camp, depending on how your camp organizes Bunk Scheduling.
Opening Segments
To access Segments, click Program in the header bar.
Click Segments under the Bunk Scheduling section
Adding a Segment

A pop-up window will appear.
- Choose which Session you would like to assign the Segment to from the drop-down menu
- Create a Name for the Segment
- Hit Submit
Segments will appear in the Session that you've assigned them to in alphabetical order. You may add as many Segments to a Session as you would like.
