THE WOODS – The event set an attendance record this year with nobody in attendance. “It makes me proud that hermits are really sticking to their values these days”, said former hermit, Dale. “But that’s all I have to say, stop asking questions.” The golden lantern is presented every year to a hermit who has displayed outstanding reclusive behavior in the face of an ever encroaching population. The award (a golden lantern on a stick with the words “who goes there” inscribed on the side) is unique in that nobody is ever there to accept it.
