Our weather this morning for the start of our third Father Son camp was less than ideal, to say the least. We woke to pouring rain and thunderstorms, which went on all morning. The weather kept saying it would end by noon…or 1:30…or 3. Finally by 3, the rain stopped and we could resume lots […]

The Water Campfire was an incredible night last night, with gorgeous weather and meaningful speeches and songs. It was a beautiful end to the camper careers of our four Leaders. And today we wrapped up our last camper-only session with our E session awards breakfast. We gave out lots of awards like patches earned for […]

It’s hard to believe we’re wrapping up our camper sessions tomorrow. Breakfast this morning was egg sandwiches and hash browns, and lunch was baked ziti and bread. It was yet another sunny day at Deerhorn, for which we are very grateful as we finish off this session. Kids had their last three periods of activities […]

Breakfast this morning was french toast casserole, lunch was pulled pork, and dinner is lo mein and egg rolls. It was another warm sunny day. Today was the last full day of activities for this session, as tomorrow’s schedule is a little different. Kids are working on those final few stars in activities as we […]

We’re wrapping up the last few days of E session and the fun doesn’t stop. Sports and Games played Quidditch today on the soccer field. There may not have been any flying broomsticks, but there definitely was a Golden Snitch running all over camp every period as kids tried to catch him. Group 2 made […]

We love day 7 of each session, as we break out of our routine for a Special Day at Deerhorn. We sleep in an extra hour and then have breakfast at 9 instead of 8. After breakfast, kids had some (rare) free time around camp to do free choice activities like street hockey, ultimate frisbee, […]

It was another action-packed day at Deerhorn!  Sports and Games played flag football on the soccer field. Breakfast was doughnuts and muffins and bacon, lunch was homemade pizza and caesar salad, and dinner was baked chicken and potatoes with strawberry shortcake for dessert. It’s hard to believe we are already halfway through E session! We […]

it was another gorgeous sunny day at Deerhorn! Sports and Games played Star Wars on DK Field. It’s yet another Deerhorn game that definitely involves dodgeball. (pretty much all of the made up games involve some form of dodgeball! 😉 There is footage of Star Wars on our IG and FB stories. Breakfast was egg […]

What a great day at Deerhorn! It was another warm sunny day at camp, and there were lots of trips down the slide, Rave launches, sailing, skiing, kayaking, and playing with the dogs in the water. Of course, there were lots of other activities too, but the waterfront was hopping with action all day. Breakfast […]

While we have enjoyed the warmer days that this summer has brought, there is something quintessential Northwoods about waking up to a cool morning and needing some layers at breakfast. Those layers quickly got shed today as it warmed up nicely again! We are grateful to not have the heat and humidity of last week. […]
