C Session is Here!!
Of all the sessions, C might be our favorite. It’s just really great to get to spend three full weeks with this group of kids and be able to settle into even more of a routine. The other three just seem to fly by so fast! We had 35 kids stay over from B session, […]
B Session in the Books!
And here we are, at the end of another 2021 session. Where does time go? We had our awards breakfast this morning and gave out patches for Most Improved in each activity, patches for stars earned, rifle sharpshooter awards, and lots of others! Our Sharpshooter awards went to Luke Wiese for juniors, Robbie Scarborough for […]
Wrapping Up
Busy day around here! This morning was the last three activity periods of B session. We were grateful that the sun shone this morning and the rain held off until this afternoon. As you can see from the photos, kids had a blast all morning in activities! After chili dogs for lunch, kids headed back […]
Beating the Heat
Whew! It’s another hot one here at Camp Deerhorn! By the afternoon, Sports and Games and Horseback Riding headed down to the waterfront for some water jousting to cool off in the 90 degree temperatures. Kids also had fun going down the waterslide, playing on the sailboards, and just swimming in the A-dock. Breakfast was […]
America and the Olympics
WHEW! What a full day it has been! We got to sleep in an hour this morning and have breakfast at 9, and our morning was a little lazier with some camper free time. But the rest of the day was packed full! Breakfast was doughnuts and sausage, lunch was tacos, and dinner was burgers […]
It’s a Hot One!
The temperature reached almost 90 today, making for great waterfront weather! We had blueberry pancakes and bacon for breakfast, and chicken ranch wraps for lunch. Activities are in full swing and kids met after lunch with their teams to prepare for tomorrow’s Sunday event. The Pioneers checked in today that all is well with them, […]
Bon Voyage, Pioneers!
Our Pioneers left early this morning on their 8 day backpacking expedition along the Ice Age Trail. They were all super excited to go, and even had friends who woke up early to see them off! We can’t wait to hear all about their trip when they return next Friday! Back at camp, it was […]
Brothers at Deerhorn
It’s fun to announce that we’re doing brother pictures, because we find that lots of other kids show up for them who aren’t actually brothers! But that’s one of the joys of Deerhorn, the friends that feel like brothers. You can check out all of our brother pics on our Facebook page! What a gorgeous […]
After the Rain
There’s a saying that goes “Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass…it’s about learning to dance in the rain.” Here at Deerhorn, we prefer “It’s about learning to find the best mudsliding spot!” Yesterday’s weather wasn’t great, but the hours after dinner when the sky cleared and the sun came out were pretty […]
Rainy Day, Still Time to Play
Today hasn’t been the best, weather-wise, but it hasn’t stopped the fun! We woke to overcast skies and an ugly forecast, but luckily there have been plenty of periods of respite in the midst of the rain. Our rainy day plan has two contingencies, one for just light rain and the other for storms. Today […]
