Good Morning Camp Crestridge

Posted by Sharon

One of the most memorable things from Camp Crestridge is the Wake Up Bell each morning followed by Marva singing beautifully over the PA system waking up campers and staff alike. It’s classic, it’s startling, and it’s comforting all at once. Although we like to sleep in once we head back home to our beds, there are times when we would love to remember what it’s like to wake up on a cool Camp Crestridge morning. For that reason, we have recreated the Good Morning Camp Crestridge Wake Up Bell!

Below you will find a link to the Good Morning sounds from Camp Crestridge, complete with the Bell, Marva’s voice and Sonny’s howl! Please read the directions carefully to get this “ringtone” uploaded properly to your phone. The process takes less than 5 minutes.

Don’t have a Smart Phone?

Take your Laptop/iPad/Tablet/iPod into your child’s room when you want to wake them up.  Click on this link – Good Morning Camp Crestridge – then make sure “Open With (iTunes or Windows Media Player)” is selected and click okay.  The file should automatically open and start playing.

iPhone:

1.  Download the following link to your computer – Good Morning Camp Crestridge. Save the file.  When the Downloads box appears and confirms the file has been downloaded, drag the file to your desktop.

2.  Right Click on the file and click on “Rename”.  Rename the file to “Good Morning Camp Crestridge.m4r”.  (Note the only thing that changes is the “m4r” at the end).  A box will appear and warn you that the file may become unusable if you change the name.  Click “Yes” to confirm that you want to change the file name.

3.  Open iTunes and drag this file into your library.  You can also copy the file and paste it into your Library.  You should then be able to find it in the “Tones” file in your Library.

4.  Plug your phone into your computer.  After it syncs, drag this file from your Tones Library to your iPhone.  Then sync your phone again.

5.  Safely eject your phone and unplug it.

6.  Now on your iPhone, open your Alarm Clock and change the sound to “Good Morning Camp Crestridge”.

7.  Enjoy waking up to the Bell and Marva’s voice every morning!

*If you would also like just the Wake Up Bell, you can download this link and follow the same instructions – Crestridge Wake Up Bell

*There is also a free App called “Ringtones” that will help you through the process.

Android:

1.  Download the following link to your computer – Good Morning Camp Crestridge.  Save the file.  When the Downloads box appears and confirms the file has been downloaded, drag the file to your desktop.

2.  Plug your phone into your computer.   On your phone under notifications click on the USB notification and choose “Mount”.

3.  Open your “My Computer” file.  Open the drive (your phone under “My Computer”) and make a new folder called “ringtones” (all lower case).

4.  Copy the “Good Morning Camp Crestridge” file into this ringtones folder you just made.

5.  Safely eject the drive from your computer and unplug your phone.

6.  On your phone, open your Alarm Clock and change the sound to “Good Morning Camp Crestridge”.

7.  Enjoy waking up to the Bell and Marva’s voice every morning!

If you have any questions, we would love to help you out!  We hope you will take advantage of this to have a little taste of Crestridge each day!  Don’t forget to use this on December 1st to celebrate the 1st Annual Camp Crestridge Day!
