B is For Boyhood Adventure

It was another warm sunny day for our first full day of B Session activities. The way our schedule is set up, we have six activity periods Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and six different activities Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. Kids can choose whether to go to riding or golf, and whether to go to biking […]


B Has Begun!

We are always grateful when the weather is this perfect for opening day! It’s warm, sunny, and beautiful. We had 27 kids stay over from A session and they did activities today in temporary groups while kids arrived by car throughout the day. Most of our B Session kids arrived by bus around 2, and […]


A is For Amazing!

There’s no other word for it. A Session was amazing! This session is the best way to kick off our summer, full of kids who are bursting with energy and excitement for camp. The ten days flew by and we said goodbye to most of our A session campers this morning. We capped off the […]


Brothers & Friends as A Session Ends

Whew! This A session just flew by so fast! Here we are on the last night of the session, and it’s been a busy day. This morning was the last three periods of regular activities, so campers worked hard to earn those last few stars. The rest of the day has gone by in a […]


Wrapping Up

Time sure does fly when you’re having fun! Today was the last full day of activities for A session and kids were busy having fun and  working toward those final stars.  Tomorrow afternoon’s schedule is a little bit different, so today was the last day that these kids will have afternoon activities. Today’s weather was […]


Sundays Are Fun Days

Sundays are a little different at Camp Deerhorn! We get to sleep in an extra hour and have breakfast at 9. That announcement the night before always elicits a dining room full of cheers! We had french toast and sausage for breakfast, and after breakfast kids enjoyed some rare free time around camp. Some hung […]


Pictures and Words

I could tell you about the delicious pancakes we had for breakfast this morning, that we are thrilled the sun continues to shine and temps are in the 80s, or that Sports and Games played ultimate frisbee today. Or I could just let the pictures speak for themselves. They tell a much better story than […]


Lots More Sun & Koogee Fun

Hooray for sunshine and warmer temperatures! While the morning dawned chilly, it didn’t take long to warm up to almost 80. Sports and Games played Balco Ball today, which is a Deerhorn made up game involving wiffle ball in the outfield of the baseball field. Our counselors have made up so many games over the […]


Fun in Fleece

If you’ve been watching our weather, you’ll know that today was once again on the chilly side. Yesterday was great, and then today we’ve bottomed out again. 🙂 Some people choose to come in August rather than June because they think that it’s cold in June and hot in August, but it’s just not that […]


2023 A Session Teams!

We were all so grateful to wake up this morning to warmer temperatures that continued to climb throughout the day. We finished all of our swim tests today and kids were ready to head out to swim, ski, sail, and canoe. Breakfast this morning was scrambled eggs, sausage, and potatoes. Lunch was grilled cheese, fries, […]
