It feels like the session just started, but it has been a whirlwind of a few days. Yesterday afternoon was busy with the big Sunday event, and then we had to get a group of kids ready for the Lake Superior Trip, which left today. There are 23 kids on that trip, and it left […]

We love Sundays at Camp Deerhorn! There’s always a huge cheer Saturday night at dinner when we announce that we’re sleeping in Sunday morning. Sundays are also a break in the routine, where we get to do something a little different. We had scrambled eggs, sausage, and hash browns for breakfast at 9am instead of […]

The sun shines, the breeze blows off the lake, the skies are blue, and the fun is endless around here! Kids found out this morning what team they were on, and that’s always super exciting. Breakfast was delicious homemade pancakes, lunch was  chicken tenders and curly fries, and dinner was spaghetti and meatballs. Now that […]

C session started yesterday, which means there are 70 kids who just arrived at camp and are so excited to be here. That means that there were a lot of early risers this morning, ready to get the action started long before the bell rang at 7:15am. Kids were on the tennis courts as early […]

The summer is flying by. This weekend will mark the halfway point of the summer, and we can’t believe how fast it’s going. C session is an interesting one, because while it’s our longest session, at 3 weeks, it also contains three shorter sessions within it. We miss only having three long sessions each summer, […]

Well, another 2022 session is in the books. B session ended this morning with our traditional awards breakfast. We passed out patches for points earned in stars, as well as Most Improved patches in each activity. The Junior tennis trophy was awarded to Gavin Moffatt, the Intermediate winner was Grayson Smith, and the Senior winner […]

We blinked, and suddenly B session is almost over! Where does two weeks go? We are glad that today is sunny and warm after yesterday’s rain. The morning was spent in regular activities, as kids worked to earn those final stars. The points they earn from stars help their team, but they also earn patches […]

It’s another day full of action here at Deerhorn, with some 4th of July fun thrown in on top! The dining hall is decorated, kids got bandanas at breakfast, and we sang Bappy Hirthday to America.  Our morning and afternoon are activities as usual, but the evening holds more 4th fun. After dinner, we hope […]

All Sunday events are fun and exciting and a big deal. But The Chariots of Fire is one of the big ones. It’s a really fun team event created by counselors years ago. It involves small groups of teammates running all over camp to complete tasks. Some of the tasks are small, like dancing or […]

It’s always so fun to get pictures of brothers who are at Deerhorn together. When I make the announcement, it’s not just brothers who show up, it’s also cousins and friends. At Deerhorn, friends grow as close as brothers and brothers grow even closer than they are at home. It’s so cool to watch the […]
