C session started yesterday, which means there are 70 kids who just arrived at camp and are so excited to be here. That means that there were a lot of early risers this morning, ready to get the action started long before the bell rang at 7:15am. Kids were on the tennis courts as early […]

The summer is flying by. This weekend will mark the halfway point of the summer, and we can’t believe how fast it’s going. C session is an interesting one, because while it’s our longest session, at 3 weeks, it also contains three shorter sessions within it. We miss only having three long sessions each summer, […]

Well, another 2022 session is in the books. B session ended this morning with our traditional awards breakfast. We passed out patches for points earned in stars, as well as Most Improved patches in each activity. The Junior tennis trophy was awarded to Gavin Moffatt, the Intermediate winner was Grayson Smith, and the Senior winner […]

We blinked, and suddenly B session is almost over! Where does two weeks go? We are glad that today is sunny and warm after yesterday’s rain. The morning was spent in regular activities, as kids worked to earn those final stars. The points they earn from stars help their team, but they also earn patches […]

It’s another day full of action here at Deerhorn, with some 4th of July fun thrown in on top! The dining hall is decorated, kids got bandanas at breakfast, and we sang Bappy Hirthday to America.  Our morning and afternoon are activities as usual, but the evening holds more 4th fun. After dinner, we hope […]

All Sunday events are fun and exciting and a big deal. But The Chariots of Fire is one of the big ones. It’s a really fun team event created by counselors years ago. It involves small groups of teammates running all over camp to complete tasks. Some of the tasks are small, like dancing or […]

It’s always so fun to get pictures of brothers who are at Deerhorn together. When I make the announcement, it’s not just brothers who show up, it’s also cousins and friends. At Deerhorn, friends grow as close as brothers and brothers grow even closer than they are at home. It’s so cool to watch the […]

I could tell you we had sausage and egg muffin sandwiches for breakfast and homemade pizza for lunch. I could tell you that the sun is shining and this perfect breeze is blowing off the lake. But sometimes for a blog I like to just let the pictures speak for themselves. So much action happening […]

We awoke this morning to cloudy skies and rain. There was the possibility for storms, but at breakfast it was just light rain. In the middle of breakfast, our power suddenly went out!  Luckily, it was only a short outage and the power was back about an hour later. But it’s never a dull moment […]

After some storms last night, today dawned sunny and beautiful again. The breeze off the lake made for a great day for sailing. Breakfast was scrambled eggs, hash browns, and sausage. Lunch was baked chicken and baked potatoes. Dinner was chicken tenders, curly fries, and yummy strawberry mousse. Sports and Games played two-man-team Braveheart. Kids […]
