At Camp Robin Hood we truly are a family. Head Counselor Chuck Illig began at Robin Hood in 1965, Associate Director Michelle Brockman in 1990, and Head of Riding/Office Manager Diane Morath in 1993. Our director Woody is a former camper, counselor, and camp parent who understands the unique responsibilities—and rewards—of working at Camp Robin Hood. When you come to Robin Hood, you can expect constant support, encouragement, and advice from our supremely experienced Leadership Team.
If you accept a job at Robin Hood, you will be working at one of the most beautiful places in New England.

More About Camp Robin Hood
Located on 180 acres of pristine New Hampshire landscape just a stone’s throw from the White Mountain National Forest, Camp Robin Hood offers a breathtaking backdrop for childhood discovery. Since our founding in 1927, we have evolved from a simple summer program into a cherished institution—a "home away from home" where traditions are honored and every camper is treated as family.
What truly sets Robin Hood apart is our unparalleled staff continuity. Our counselors aren't just seasonal employees; they are the living history of the camp. Because most of our staff spent their own childhoods in these very cabins, they don't just know the daily schedule; they understand the specific feeling of being a first-time camper. This creates a powerful cycle of mentorship where staff members return with a deep-seated passion to pay forward the "Robin Hood Magic" they experienced firsthand, ensuring the next generation feels the same sense of belonging and support. For our team, this isn't just a job—it’s a legacy that results in a level of emotional investment and safety that is exceptionally rare to find.
We believe in providing a structured foundation that allows children to flourish and find their own path. In our care, your child will build deep and enduring lifelong bonds while developing character through the vital importance of mutual respect. By stepping out of their comfort zones and celebrating new successes, campers embrace personal growth and gain a lasting sense of self-confidence.
For nearly a century, the air at camp has been filled with the sound of voices raised in song. The lyric "Friends, friends, friends we will always be" isn't just a catchy tune; it is the fundamental philosophy of our community. When a child joins us, they aren't just signing up for a summer of activities; they are being inducted into a global network of alumni and peers that spans nearly a century of history. We provide the stage, the safety, and the tradition, while your child provides the unique voice that makes our family complete.
