Hey Rob, its Charlie. Its great to hear from you. I'm glad you're
doing well and tell everybody I said hi. I do have to say I had
tons of fun at the camp last year and Patrick is a great coach.
He taught me a bunch of things I had never seen before that have
helped me improve. I'm definitely trying to come for a couple weeks
this year. Hope to see you soon.

Thanks for a wonderful week. Rich really enjoyed himself, and is
in great condition to start the 2009-2010 season on Wed the 26th.
Take care Rob.
See you next summer. Have a great season.

Hey Rob its Eddie Merrigan, thank you for an awesome (as usual) week
of hockey camp. Coach Pat is an excellent goalie coach, I learned
many great things from him and feel I improved alot in just one week.
Just the experience of watching the chowder cup was a thrill. Everyday
was veryfun and exciting. I would stay at RB hockey camp all summer
long if I could and never get sick of it. Thanks again, see you in
August,
Eddie Merrigan

Hey Rob,
Well your program was everything you said it would be and then some.
Justin had such an amazing time he would like to come back on August
9th. Blonde hair and all. Coach Pat is amazing !!!!! Justin said
that this was the BEST camp EVER !!!
Thanks again for ALL that you do during the week.

Patrick,
I wanted to take a minute and confirm what I told you after the
last skills session.
What matters to me is that Bethany enjoys hockey. If any kid isn’t
having fun doing it then why bother. She came away again after last
night with nothing but good things to say about your coaching. I’ll
paraphrase:
1. He takes the time to correct me after every shot / drill. Not
just once or twice out of 20 but 20 out of 20.
2. He gives me the reason for the correction i.e. position your
catching glove this way, it will help you glove the high shot
3. He made it fun (that’s a big one)
Keep doing what you are doing. She's learning and having fun doing
it.

Dear Rob,
Just a report on Sean Riordan, a NEH graduate who played 4 years
of varsity hockey @ Milton High School for Coach Paul Noonan. Sean
is now a
freshman @ Boston College enjoying ItraMural Hockey every week.
High Lite of Sean's hockey career was Senior Year, he was accepted
Early Admission to Boston College on the same day that Coach Noonan
told Sean that he would be playing wing on the Power Play for Milton
High! You know which was more rewarding for a hockey player! NEH
is great but Rob Barletta is THE MAN to these kids and always will
be..great job. Coach Noonan recognized that Sean had some talent
and he could not have had a better high school hockey experience
than he did @ Milton High! Now he is enjoying the sport playing
intramurals for fun. My hats off to you Rob Barletta & RB Hockey!

I just wanted to drop you a quick line to let you know how much
Ian enjoyed your mini-camp. We've done a few other kinds of camps,
and usually by the third day he's begging to quit -- this was the
first time he's ever been excited to attend every day. He had a
lot of fun, and he learned a lot. He's already talking about attending
another one, so we'll keep checking the website for future camps.
Thanks again!

Hi Rob
Thank you for getting back to me. My 9yr old, Michael, did the
mini camp last week and had a blast. You won him over. He wants
us to bring him to some Tues night skills sessions which he previously
felt intimidated about going to.
Thanks again
Diane

Rob - my son is AJ, he goes on Thursday's Learn to Play (as a walk-on),
and went to your December Mini Camp. He turned 6 in November. The
Mini-Camp was great and worth every penny. You and your coaches
do a great job with the kids.
Thanks,
Roger

Rob -
I think you know this but you hire great people - and then put them
with kids in the right age groups - I am always concerned that Andrews
first experience with anything be positive - and boy was it with
his first weeklong hockey camp - he keeps talking about everything
you did, even the lunch with the "giant chicken nugget"
- I forget his name but the coach that worked with Andrew (he worked
at the rink in nh) came up to me on monday and said - ya know he
can do whatever we ask him - but is it ok if I push him because
he likes to take breaks but will improve dramatically if we push
him - I of course said to push him as hard as he thinks - I think
he finished yesterday very strong - most other camps would have
let him just cruise through - I really appreciate the fact that
you and your coaches can read kids and get the most out of them.
And if you want proof that what you do works - look at Jacqueline
she is so much better - and she has a blast at your camps with you
Dennis and the women coaches - She is talking about back to back
weeks of overnite camp next summer (good luck to you) - that more
than anything tells me we collectively are doing things right.
