The 2023 C Session Draft

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. 😉 […]


C Session is Here!

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 […]


B Session Goodbyes

Well, that two weeks sure flew by fast! Our B session ended this morning with our awards breakfast, and lots of awards passed out for Most Improved in each activity as well as patches earned for stars. Sharpshooter awards for highest scores in each age group were Jorge Hagg Martinez for juniors, Mark Zsirai for […]


Bappy Hirthday, America!

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 […]


Beating the Heat

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 […]


The 2023 Deerhorn Olympics

Hooray for Sundays at Deerhorn! We sleep in, enjoy some free time in the morning, and we always look forward to the big team event in the afternoon! Today’s Sunday event was the Deerhorn Olympics, where all four teams competed with their teammates in traditional Olympic events, like track & field, basketball, soccer, and volleyball, […]


B Session Koogees

We aren’t sure where the time has gone! This afternoon is already the last day of afternoon activities for Tuesday/Thursday/Saturday activities, since Tuesday afternoon is a different schedule as the session winds down.  It’s a warm, sunny day at Deerhorn, and we’re grateful that the air quality has improved over the last few days. It’s […]


Hanging Out and Having Fun

It’s hard to believe this session is already more than halfway over! Time really does fly! Today was another day of regular activities, as kids work on earning stars and enjoy hanging out with their friends. Kids can earn stars in activities for mastery of skills. Red star for beginners are worth 25 points, blue […]


B is For Brothers

We love taking brother pictures at camp. It’s so fun to see actual brothers sharing Deerhorn together, but it’s also fun to see who shows up when we make the announcement that we’re taking brother photos! They aren’t related by blood, but they consider themselves Deerhorn brothers. Please note, we just make the announcement to […]


2023 Chariots

Well, it was worth the wait! After two cloudy, rainy days, we were so glad we delayed the Chariots of Fire to today. It’s been warm and sunny all day, perfect weather for one of our favorite special events. This morning was regular activities as usual, and then after lunch, teams gathered during rest hour […]
