D Session is Here!
Our first day of D Session dawned cool but sunny. We had bagels for breakfast, and the kids who stayed over from C session were divided up into temporary activity groups by grade, just for the day while we waited for the buses and for kids to arrive by car. They did activities like sprout […]

C Session Goodbyes
And just like that…ten days has flown by and our C session is over. Luckily, the day dawned bright and beautiful after all of our rain yesterday. It was definitely much cooler than it has been, though, and we all welcome the change. We had our awards breakfast this morning to cap off C session. […]

Sometimes Plans Change
Well, we’ve been really lucky this session with the weather. For the most part, it has been warm and sunny, with very little rain. Unfortunately, that luck ran out this afternoon, as it started raining after lunch and didn’t quit until after dinner. That definitely put a kink in our usual plans! Breakfast this morning […]

Campfire Magic
It was another gorgeous day at Camp Deerhorn! It was definitely another hot and humid one, so water activities were the favorite place to be today. Breakfast was blueberry pancakes and sausage and lunch was cheese quesadillas…definitely both crowd pleasers! Today was the last full day of activities for this session, as tomorrow’s schedule is […]

2025 Monkey Relays
Every day 7 at Deerhorn is a special day, but today’s was extra special! The Monkey Relays have been happening at Deerhorn since 1930. They start in the lodge with someone from each team blowing a ping pong ball across the floor. That kicks off the grandaddy of all relay races! Every activity in camp […]

Just Being a Boy
I write a blog most days of the summer, talking about the weather, the food, the activities. And no matter the words I use, they often feel inadequate to fully convey the magic that is Deerhorn. So I could tell you that it was doughnuts for breakfast this morning, and homemade pizza and caesar salad […]

Koogee Time
It was another beautiful day at Deerhorn! Our nights and mornings have been cooler these last few days, which is great for sleeping. (Not cold, just not warm and muggy like they have been in recent weeks) Breakfast this morning was scrambled eggs and potatoes, and lunch was homemade mac and cheese and garlic bread. […]

Teams and Voyagers
It was a big day at Deerhorn for two reasons! For one, we ended morning activities early at 11:15 so that teams could be announced. Kids get so so excited to find out what team they are on! It was also a big day because our Voyagers arrived home! The bus pulled in around 5:00, […]

It’s C Session, Baby!
Our first two sessions were amazing, but we weren’t at capacity. C session started today and we are FULL. The kids who stayed over from B session had an amazing time at the zipline yesterday, and woke up today ready to meet a ton of new friends! Kids rolled in throughout the day and once […]

B Session Goodbyes
Somehow, 11 days have passed and the B session is over. We’re not quite sure where time went! We capped off B session with our awards breakfast. We gave out awards for patches earned for stars, as well as Most Improved in each activity. Rifle awards for high scores went to Lucas Kray in juniors, […]
