Meet Our Family

We Are Howie, Sari & Jordanna, Nice To Meet You!

Whether it is talking to parents, training our staff, giving a hug or acting silly and wearing a crazy costume. We love it all. And that is why we have dedicated our lives to ensuring that each and every Camp Robin Hood camper has the best camp experience possible. With over 30 years of professional camp experience, and our daughter Jordanna now joining the family business we couldn’t imagine life any other way.

Sari and Howie Grossinger

Sending your child to summer camp is no small decision. (Trust us—we know.) Our family involvement began in 1961 when Sari’s parents, Larry & Pearl Bell took on the leadership of Camp Robin Hood. Married for 33 years, and each at Robin Hood for well over 35 years, they pour their passion and know-how to make every camper, staff and parent experience the best it can be.

Sari & Howie’s impact as leaders has been recognized across Canada as they were the 2019 recipients of the Canadian Camping Association’s Jack Pearse Award of Honour for providing outstanding service to the national organization and Honourary Life Members of the Ontario Camps Association.

They are also the proud parents of 3 children who have benefited from the camp experience and now as young adults, are carving out their own professions. Jordanna who works alongside us as a Co-Director, Cole and his wife Lexie who now live and work in Los Angeles and Zane who is currently at Medical School in Ireland.

Did you know that Sari & Howie are also the co-owners of Camp Walden? For the past 21 years, they have fostered the growth of many Robin Hood campers who have made the move from our country day camp to our wonderful overnight camp. Overall, creating safe places for positive growth, independence, and boatloads of fun are the guiding principles that make Sari & Howie’s leadership so impactful.

The Best People Create Something Pretty Amazing

Our Camp Spirit is like nothing you have ever experienced and it is built and fostered directly by our dedicated staff. Bus rides, cabin fun, special days and camp-wide events all provide our staff the opportunity to bring energy, creativity and real connection to the relationships they build with our campers. From carefully planned programs to spontaneous activities which campers love, the spirit at Robin Hood is non-stop, making each summer beyond memorable.
