It’s a busy week at Camp Deerhorn, with lots of comings and goings. Our Lake Superior trip left this morning before breakfast. That group of 24 kids is headed north to Lake Superior, with some fun stops along the way. One of them is Wildwood Animal Park in Minocqua. Once they get to Bayfield, they […]

We love taking Deerhorn brother pictures. It’s always fun to see who shows up with their friends and wants to have their photo taken together! All of our brother pictures are posted both on SmugMug and our Facebook page. We apologize if you have brothers at camp and they aren’t in the photos. We make […]

Sundays are a little different at Camp Deerhorn, and we all welcome the change in routine. We sleep in an extra hour and have breakfast at 9am. This morning’s breakfast was french toast and sausage. Sunday mornings, kids enjoy some rare free time around camp. There are usually games of ultimate frisbee and basketball that […]

It’s been a great first three days of C session. Kids had their second full day of activities today, with orientations for the other six activities on their schedule. Sports and Games played Star Wars on the baseball field today. It’s yet another crazy game invented by our counselors. You’ll have to ask your camper […]

It’s an exciting day at Camp Deerhorn! The Leaders drafted their teams late last night and so we ended third period of the morning early to announce teams and pass out shirts. Kids went running to the lodge, excited to find out what team they were on. But then again, these kids run everywhere. 😉 […]

Opening day for C session dawned sunny and cool. We are grateful for the break in the heat and humidity we’ve had for the past week. We couldn’t have asked for better weather to kick of our C session. This session lasts 3 weeks, but since the demand for 10 day sessions was high, we […]

Happy 4th of July from Camp Deerhorn! This morning was the last morning of activities for A session, as kids worked toward those final stars. After lunch, everyone headed back to their koogees to pack up, either to move koogees for next session, or go home tomorrow. This afternoon, instead of activities, we had three […]

When the sun shines and the temperature reaches almost 90 degrees, the waterfront is the place to be to beat the heat! Some of our activities, like horseback riding, basketball, and tennis, just get too hot to be able to safely run, so they head down to the beach for some water hoops and other […]
