Camp Safe Policy


Every child has the right to feel safe in our camping environment and every reasonable effort will be made to provide a safe and nurturing environment for all of our campers. As challenges present themselves, a problem solving format will be utilized to support all those involved. Discipline will be fair and progressive, and used as much as a teaching tool as possible. Clear and consistent consequences will be put into place, depending on the situation, by incorporating strategies at camp with supportive reinforcement at home.

Our hope, like that of any social/educational setting, is to help create responsible, caring and productive young people. Issues of bullying, in all of its forms, can occur in any social environment. Robin Hood is ready to respond at all times to issues of verbal or physical intimidation, put downs of any kind or any situation that creates discomfort for any camper. Our Supervisory Staff (many of whom are educators themselves) and Directors will be directly involved in the problem solving approaches we utilize. Only through meaningful dialogue at camp and with our families can we effectively deal with this serious issue.
