Page 17 - Parent Handbook - Camp Robin Hood 2024

Wrap Up
We hope this handbook takes most of the mystery out of getting ready for your child’s summer. Please believe us, this information and all the forms we have you fill out pay rich dividends in providing your child with a FUN and meaningful summer experience. If there is anything else that you would like us to be aware of or any requests or special needs that don’t fit on any of the other forms, just give us a call or send an email.
Although this section is about helping your child cope at camp, we do have a few strategies to help our parents cope as well! Please remember to log into our website at www.camprobinhood.com daily to see updated photos of campers having a ball at camp. We will try to have every camper in at least one or two photos weekly.
We are partners in your child’s camping experience. We want each child to succeed and enjoy the immense number of opportunities he or she is offered at Robin Hood. Your child’s happiness marks the success of 2024 camping season. At the end of the summer, we want each child to leave with a giant grin, anxiously waiting to return next summer. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to reach us via email or phone. We cannot wait for the summer of 2024 to begin!
Sincerely,
Woody

Letters and eLetters
We suggest sending out mail and eletters to your camper prior to their arrival at camp. We also recommend packing your child with stationary and pre-stamped, addressed envelopes so he or she is able to write you letters throughout the summer.
