C Session is HERE!

Opening day of C session dawned bright and sunny.  Breakfast was cinnamon rolls and sausage. Kids who stayed over and kids who arrived by car were put into temporary activity groups for the day and did activities such as kickball, sproutball, and beach volleyball throughout the day. After quesadillas for lunch, the kids who arrived […]


Whirlwind Fun

Phew! Apologies for no blog post yesterday! It was both the last full day of B session and a national holiday, so we didn’t stop running all day! The morning was the last three periods of regular activities for B session. Kids worked hard to earn those final stars. Kids were excited for the 4th […]


Polar Opposites

Wisconsin weather is weird. Yesterday it was chilly, windy, and it was spitting rain off and on all day. Grey and cloudy, we were all dressed in layers all day.  Today could not have been more different! We woke to a warmer morning, the sun shone all day, and it got up into the 80s. […]


Pioneers & Chariots

It was a jam-packed day at Deerhorn today! The Pioneers were up early this morning to leave for their 8 day backpacking expedition to Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. They were SO excited to go! They even had a fan club show up to see them off! Everyone else got to sleep in an hour this […]


Brothers & Friends

We love announcing brother pics after a meal and seeing who shows up. All the brothers do, of course, and often cousins as well. But there are always lots more kids who show up, who just want their picture taken with their “Deerhorn Brothers.” Boys aren’t often ones for pictures, but they love the brother […]


Sunshine and Koogees

It was a beauty of a day today! The sun shone, the wind blew off the lake, and the humidity was much less. It was gorgeous and sunny and we loved it. The temperature got up to 73, but late in the afternoon it started dropping and by dinner it was 60 and windy, a […]


Inside Fun

Today’s weather wasn’t as great as we’ve enjoyed all week. It was a lot cooler today and it rained off and on all day. There were definitely hardy souls who still went out to the Rave for swim class and general swim, but a lot of activities moved indoors today. We built our rec hall, […]


More Sun and Fun

It was another beautiful sunny day at Deerhorn, though cooler than yesterday. Campers had their first six activities yesterday and the other six activities today. The only activity they have every day is Sports and Games, because we combine two activity groups to be able to play sports like soccer and baseball, and games that […]


A New Day

Good news! Through the miracle of recovery software, I was able to get back most of the photos from yesterday. They are on the SmugMug site along with a bunch from today! Today dawned sunny but cooler than yesterday, which we were kind of grateful for. It was pretty muggy yesterday. Breakfast this morning was […]


Life is What Happens

Our B session started today and we could not have had better weather to kick it off! The sun shone all day and the temps were in the 80s, perfect for swim tests! Our 27 kids who stayed over from A session reports this morning that the changeover day at the Woodchucks game and pool […]
