Clothing and Equipment
Camp Robin Hood’s official clothier is Amerasport. We require that that each camper brings two green and two white shirts with the camp logo printed on them. If your camper is interested in playing on sports teams, specific Robin Hood apparel is required. T-shirts and sporting apparel may be ordered through Amerasport’s web site at www.amerasport.com.
You are reminded to mark all clothing and equipment with
your camper’s name. To avoid loss, use nametags wherever
possible. On items that cannot have nametags sewn on,
use adhesive tape and mark the camper’s name with indelible ink. Parents are reminded that camp is a good place to bring old clothes. Please do not send fancy clothing
PACKING
It is helpful to pack with your child so that he or she will know and recognize what belonging have been brought to camp. We recommend packing in two large duffel bags. Please make sure that all bags are clearly marked with you child’s first and last name and his or her group name.
LAUNDRY
Laundry is done in camp once a week. Your child’s clothing and bedding will be cleaned and folded by the laundry staff and returned the same day. While we have had much success with laundry, your child should not send any articles of clothing that are not machine-washable. As a general rule, if you don’t want to risk your child’s clothing getting lost or ruined, don’t bring it to camp. Please pack your child with two laundry bags with his or her full name and group name clearly written on the bag.
EYEGLASSES
If your child wears glasses, please send an extra pair to camp. If your child wears contact lenses, please send extra contact lenses and solution.
HORSEBACK RIDING
Campers who choose to participate in horseback riding are advised to bring their own helmets and boots although we have some kids can borrow. We cannot guarantee that we will have your camper’s boot size available for use. Campers cannot ride in sneakers or hiking boots. Campers must have a shoe or boot with small heel and little grip.
SOCCER
Campers participating in soccer must bring shin guards to camp.
SWIMWEAR
All female campers must bring at least 1 one-piece bathing suit to camp. This bathing suit may be worn for certain activities throughout the camping season.
