What a day here at the REALM\u2026\u2026. The sun was shining down on us all day which allowed every group to get into the water and enjoy everything that Lake Ossipee has to offer.\u00a0\u00a0I wish you could walk around camp and see what I see.\u00a0\u00a0It is incredible to watch and feel the energy that flows at camp from 8:00 am till 9:00 pm every day. We are all now members of the CRH family. After 2 full days, our 17 groups are now all individual families. Seeing the new campers who just 2 days ago came out of vans\/ cars\/ buses slightly overwhelmed now run around smiling from ear to ear warms my heart.<\/p>\n
We ended tonight with our traditional staff show. I challenged your kids to watch us make fools of ourselves on stage.\u00a0\u00a0I reminded them camp is about stepping out of your comfort zone. I told them how lucky they are to experience things here at camp that they could never do at home.<\/p>\n
My personal highlight was bringing our 17 group leaders – your children\u2019s fill-in parents here for the summer on stage for an encore bow. They are all ex-campers who have spent up to 16 summers here at camp. I pointed to the SCOUT\u2019s and TPJ\u2019s seated in the first row and promised to be on this same stage with them in 12 years when they are running the Realm. It is our secret sauce in so many ways.\u00a0\u00a0These ex-campers love and have so much passion for all things CRH.\u00a0\u00a0I am so lucky to have them here making sure the traditions and values that make Robin Hood so special are passed down from generation to generation.<\/p>\n
I am the 5th director to run CRH in the last 92 years.\u00a0\u00a0It is a pretty good bet that the next one might have been sitting in our audience tonight \u2026\u2026.<\/p>\n
Sweet dreams from the Realm<\/p>\n
