The realm had a cold and windy start to the day, but quickly heated up. Beginning at breakfast, cheers of “Beat West End” roared around the dining hall. Woody announced a surprise mountain trip to Diane’s Bath for the Quills with a cozy reward. No matter the weather, campers of the realm know how to keep things intense. Speaking of intense, the realm had intensives throughout the day where campers got to choose their favorite activities to participate in, and our qualified specialty staff gave their undivided attention. Following the daily activities, the realm dressed up in their white Robin Hoods and headed to dinner. Woody’s boisterous announcements gave way to a White Sea of excitement. The realm cheered as the 15u team got pumped for the game. Under Yensi’s guidance, our kitchen staff cooked up a hearty supper to ensure the realm “BEAT WEST END!” Saxon, Owen Rothstein, led the charge to put up a 20-point first half against West End. In the second half, friar Leo Friedman closed the game with an outstanding shooting performance and stellar defense with several impressive blocks. When the clock hit zero, the realm sang the goodnight song while basking in victory. The Realm closed the night with a sportsmanlike goodbye and the sun of victory in our pockets.

Today was one of those days that you talk about all summer long. Theres camp traditions and then theres Robinhood vs West End. Our U15s went head-to-head with West End in what’s become one of the biggest traditions here at camp. With West End just 25 minutes down the road, it’s always more than just a game, and both sides showed up ready.

Robinhood came out hot, taking a big lead in the first quarter, but West End slowly chipped away, tying things up and setting the stage for a tense final quarter. The energy on the sideline was electric you could feel how much it meant to everyone watching.

But with the Robinhood crowd chanting and encouraging the team the U15’s felt like they had a 6th player and found another gear and delivered an absolute clinic in the final minutes, sealing the win with the kind of performance that makes front pages.

And if their night couldnt get any better Woody paid for ice cream!

We are all very proud to be apart of Robinhood and tonight showed us why.

We cant wait to hear everyone talking about this at breakfast.

Goodnight, From everyone here at the realm.

Wow! The girls’ athletics at Camp Robin Hood are truly in a league of their own. While we are not primarily an athletics-focused camp, we have discovered our niche through partnerships with some remarkable camps throughout New England, allowing our girls to thrive in a diverse array of sports.

Today, for example, our girls aged 11 to 14 took part in a play date with Laurel South. We had girls of different ages traveling to Laurel South to participate in soccer, volleyball, and basketball, while we welcomed a group of girls from Laurel South. At the same time, we organized several hiking excursions and social activities, including bowling. Additionally, the weather finally cooled, enabling our kids to fully enjoy the outdoors without the concern of a high UV index!

What an incredible day at the realm!

We started off today in the realm with the Jugglers traveling to West End for an inter-camp challenge! They played hard and won every single sport, and when they came back during lunch, the entire camp cheered for them. Later in the day, we sent the Jesters to the movies for some relaxing time in the air conditioning. They laughed and enjoyed their movie and time off camp. Later in the afternoon, the Arrows and Lancers went bowling at our local alley. They ate snacks, made memories, and had a great time off camp! We finished the day with our first cook-outs of the summer, with our scribes and saxons leading the way. Hope everyone had a great day at home!

The realm has been off to a fantastic start the past couple of days, and we are so glad to have the summer back into full swing! While the past couple of days have been quite warmer than usual, we have been getting every group a chance to cool off both out of camp and in our beautiful lake! Today, the TPJ’s and Saxons went on a hike to green mountain, one of Robin Hood’s oldest traditions. Thereafter, the TPJs and scouts, tumblers, got to cool off with some delicious ice cream from cozy corner! The Squires and Saxons each got off camp to watch a movie in an air conditioned theater! That’s not all though, because we also had the archers, yeoman, lancers, friars, head to an air conditioned middle school gym where they played loads of different activities like dodgeball, kickball, basketball, and so much more! They then switched with the bows, quills, and arrows who got the same chance to get off camp! Lastly the bards, shires, scribes, foresters and saxons, spent the whole afternoon in the lake, while everyone else was off camp enjoying their activities in the air conditioning. While the sun may be strong, nothing stops Robin Hood, and all our fun activities and events are always ready to be done depending on any kind of weather! Thanks for reading, and take care.
