Founded in 1927, Robin Hood was carved out of the New Hampshire wilderness and sprawls along its own half mile of shoreline with broad, natural, white sand beaches awash with water so clear you can see the bottom. With 200 level acres on the edge of New Hampshire's immense White Mountain National Forest, we are seven miles from the Maine border, one hour by car from Portland, Maine, and two hours from Boston.
Camp Robin Hood is a traditional summer camp for both girls and boys. Campers range in age from 8 to 16, and can attend either a two-week, four-week or full session.
Camp Robin Hood's mission is to provide a nurturing environment in which lasting friendships are made. As our alumni say:
"You don't join Robin Hood for a summer, you join for a lifetime."
The other central tenet is increasing self-esteem: campers' behavior is molded by building on their strengths and rewarding the smallest successes. The emphasis is on encouragement, accomplishment and recognition.
