It’s another drop dead gorgeous day here at Deerhorn! Blue skies, sunshine, and 80 degrees…we’ll take it! We had breakfast burritos for breakfast, and tortellini and focaccia bread for lunch.  Sports and Games is playing a Deerhorn game called Star Wars. You’ll have to ask your son to tell you all about all of our […]

What a gorgeous day at Deerhorn! The sun shone, the sky was blue, the warmth was once again perfect for water activities! Kids are settling into the camp routine and we haven’t had much homesickness at all! Breakfast this morning was french toast sticks and bacon, lunch was chicken wings, and dinner was hamburgers and […]

There is no doubt that Deerhorn is synonymous with brotherhood. When we announce that we’re taking brother pictures, it’s always fun to see who shows up. I think the moms out there would agree that boys notoriously don’t like having their picture taken. So it’s awesome to see how many of them want to take […]

Day 2 at each Deerhorn session is always a big one! The Leaders draft late at night on day 1, so today was the big announcement. After breakfast, kids had a quick meeting to find out what activity groups they were in, and then they were off to activities! Kids have 6 activity periods every […]

B Session is here! It was cloudy and cool all day, but at least the rain was done by breakfast! We had 37 kids stay over from A Session and they divided up into groups by age and did activities throughout the day like archery, dodgeball, and basketball.  As kids arrived by car, they settled […]

Well, here we are at the end of our first camper session. It was a great one, with lots of new campers who definitely caught the Deerhorn bug and will be back next summer. We had an awards breakfast this morning, and we handed out lots of awards! At Deerhorn, we focus on improvement in […]

For the most part, we’ve been lucky with the weather for this session. We’ve had occasional rain, but it has not lasted long and we’ve mostly enjoyed sunshine and warm temperatures. That all changed this afternoon! Kids had their last three periods of regular activities this morning. It was cloudy but still warm. After lunch, […]

What a gorgeous day at Camp Deerhorn! We were so glad that it was a warm day, but not the heat and humidity of the last couple of days! Breakfast was delicious creme brulee french toast and sausage, lunch was quesadillas, and dinner was vegetable lo mein. We loved spending time down on the waterfront […]

Brother pictures are some of my favorites to take. I also love that kids have been asking me for days when I was going to take brother pictures. I always make the announcement at a meal that I’m taking brother pictures afterward and that if you have a brother at camp, you can come have […]

Day 7 of each session is a Special Day at Camp Deerhorn. We sleep in an hour and have breakfast at 9am. This morning it was scrambled eggs and potatoes. After breakfast, kids had some rare free time around camp. There was a movie going in the basement of the Hall (where it’s always a […]
