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 […]

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, […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

We woke to light rain and cloudy skies. Luckily, the rain quit pretty soon after breakfast, so activities continued as usual all day. Sports and Games played World Cup Soccer on the soccer field. Breakfast was scrambled eggs, hash browns, and bacon, lunch was chicken philly sandwiches and sweet potato fries, and dinner was pork […]

Sundays are a little different at Camp Deerhorn. Our Monday-Saturday schedule is the same every day, so we all look forward to a change of pace on Sundays. Our favorite part of Sunday is we get to sleep in an extra hour and eat breakfast at 9am. This morning’s breakfast was french toast sticks and […]

It was another warm and sunny day today. Kids were psyched to head out to the Rave today during swim class and waterfront activities were definitely the most popular. Breakfast this morning was scrambled eggs, sausage, and hash browns. Lunch was quesadillas. Morning activities ended early so that we could announce teams and hand out […]
