Sundays are super fun at Camp Deerhorn. This is the only true Sunday we have had for this session because of where our changeover days fell. So we were all excited to sleep in an extra hour before enjoying french toast at 9 for breakfast. After breakfast, campers enjoyed some free time around camp, which […]

Our Pioneers arrived back at camp today around 4, bursting with laughter and stories about their five days of backpacking in the Porkies. We sent them straight to the showers! They had a great time, and we were all glad to see them!   Back at camp, it was activities as usual in the beautiful […]

We all had a great time at the hockey game last night! With the four leaders as our well-dressed coaches, goal scoring by both sides, and lots of cheering in the stands, it was a great night for Deerhorn hockey. We always have fun cheering on our favorite guys. We had cinnamon rolls for breakfast, […]

Kids had such a great time last night playing Civil War. Each team has 8 pieces of “treasure” in a quadrant of camp to protect…koogee row, soccer field, baseball field, and beach.

Life is so busy at camp right now! There is a lot going on in the B session.  Normally, Sundays at Deerhorn have a more laidback schedule, but since everyone just arrived yesterday, we did the Saturday schedule of activities today. Breakfast was french toast, and then campers got their koogees cleaned up and then met […]
