327: That was the number torn down in the dining hall in front of hundreds of screaming campers, overjoyed that the countdown since August 13, 2015 is officially over. We all know that every day in The Realm is beautiful, but today was exceptional. The sun shone down upon our campers as they ran into each other’s arms, caught up with old friends, made new friends, and marched into the dining hall hand in hand for dinner. We had the privilege of celebrating our first camp birthdays, accompanied by the parade around the dining hall and the Camp Robin Hood birthday song. This is a tradition I can remember from my first summer as a Tumbler of 1998. Robin Hood has always been steeped in tradition, and it’s amazing how whether it’s 327 days later or years later, we get such comfort from these traditions. 89: That is the number of summers that children have experienced the magic in the trees. We cannot wait for our first full day tomorrow.

Sweet dreams from The Realm,
Emily
