My husband fina...Sun you actually are quite right. My husband finally asked if this was unusual or not, and seems the older teams stop giving these things. He's got a second, younger team now, whew :) <BR/><BR/>Although funnily enought, when he coached at a high school the team bought him a bottle of wine, which was a bit odd. They won the championship, perhaps that's why.<BR/><BR/>My kids haven't been to camp, but I remember as a day camp counselor the director would pool all the tips and divy them out.Nicole Peltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07791466101496995936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4276514340427852569.post-18125945101765984322008-12-16T21:11:00.000-08:002008-12-16T21:11:00.000-08:00I wonder if it's b/c of the ages...

But by high school, the parents probably aren't thinking about it as much.<BR/><BR/>Or, m/b it's because by HS, there are SO MANY teachers/coaches/etc., that parents don't feel like they can give them all anything & don't do anything.<BR/><BR/>Or, if the team consists of HS-aged boys, they probably wouldn't think of getting anything.<BR/><BR/>My daughter's in preschool, and I am so thankful that our class coordinator organizes all of the holiday/b-day/end-of-year giving for the teacher!<BR/><BR/>And, really, you tip at camp, too?
