This last full day of A session has been a busy one! Breakfast this morning was scrambled eggs, bacon, and doughnut holes. This morning kids had their last three periods of regular activities, and then it was pizza bagels for lunch! (huge crowd fave!) After lunch, kids went back to their koogees to pack up […]

This session has just flown by! It’s already day 8 and the last full day of activities for A session. Breakfast this morning was breakfast quesadillas, sausage, and bacon. Lunch was burgers, and dinner was chicken street tacos. Koogee 10 won inspection for the week, so they got to go see a movie in town […]

Once each session, on day 7, we change up our schedule at Deerhorn. It used to just be every Sunday, but then we changed our schedule so that it was just day 7 of each session. We started just calling them Special Days, but that wasn’t quite right. So now we call them Deeley Days, […]

Our first group of Voyagers left this morning bright and early at 7am, headed for Voyageurs National Park. They were excited to go, but obviously only as excited as a teenager can be who’s been awakened that early. 🙂 There were friends there to see them off, including several brothers. We look forward to hearing […]

It’s another bright and sunny day here at Deerhorn!  Our first group of Voyagers has been busy all day, doing final packing and loading their kayaks on the trailer to leave bright and early tomorrow morning! They will spend 8 days sea kayaking in Voyageurs National Park. Sports and Games is playing kickball on DK […]

The sun is shining again today at Deerhorn, and our weather forecast looks great! Sports and Games is playing Ultimate Frisbee on the soccer field today. (Though, at Deerhorn, it’s called Hucka Freya.) And while activities are keeping most campers busy, our Voyagers are even busier! This year, we have so many kids who wanted […]

I love announcing that we’re going to take brother pictures after a meal. It’s always fun to see who shows up, because it’s not just actual brothers. It’s also cousins and friends who just want their photo taken together. I brought my brother to camp with me my second year on staff at Deerhorn, and […]

Day 2 of every session is always super exciting. The Leaders stay up late on the first day of camp, drafting kids to the four camp teams. Normally, we pass out shirts right before lunch, but the forecast didn’t look great, so we pivoted. After  cinnamon rolls, bacon, and potatoes for breakfast, kids returned to […]

Our first two Father Son camps were incredible…but let’s be honest…the camper sessions are when the fun really starts! 😉 We had 34 kids stay over from Father Son 2, and they had a great time at the waterpark yesterday. They woke this morning excited to get the party started! They were divided into temporary […]

We woke to a much chillier morning today at Deerhorn. It was grey and overcast most of the day, but the sun tried to peek out in the afternoon. We were just glad it didn’t rain today like it did during Father Son 1! Breakfast this morning was doughnut holes, scrambled eggs, and sausage, and […]
