Additional Information About Robin Hood Camp

We are the only camp in the U.S. located on a fresh-water lake and the ocean. Our unique vision has been to admit campers from every corner of the world to create a dynamic, diverse world community where American children are introduced to different cultural perspectives and foreign children experience the American sense of fun and openness. Campers from 25 countries are selected through a rigorous admissions process to ensure they are the right cultural fit for the Robin Hood community. Robin Hood traditions remain strong from our founding year of 1928, such as the camp uniform requirement, the singing of our original camp songs, the Green Scarlet color war, and our Nottingham Fair Day at the end of the season. At Robin Hood, the spirit of fun, tradition, challenge, and supportiveness leads campers and staff to return year after year.
