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 […]


All the Good Things

Today ended our A session, our first camper session of the summer. We’re not quite sure where the time went. We finished up the session with our awards breakfast and had lots of awards to pass out. We passed out patches for stars earned in activities, and Most Improved patches in each activity. The tennis […]


End of A Session Fun

Wow! The A session is almost done! We had breakfast burritos for breakfast, french bread pizza and caesar salad for lunch, and enchilada casserole for dinner. And guess what? It DIDN’T rain today! 🙂 The morning was full of regular activities as kids worked toward those last few stars. After lunch, kids headed back to […]


Mud Puddles

Today was another day of rain at Deerhorn. It poured all morning, though by afternoon the rain was gone and the forecast for the next few days looks way better! And if it’s going to rain at camp, there’s nothing better than some mud wrestling. Horseback riding couldn’t go on rides this morning, so instead, […]


A Session Brothers

We love taking Deerhorn brother pictures! We make the announcement at a meal for anyone who has a brother to meet outside the lodge after the meal. What’s even more fun is the kids who show up who aren’t brothers, but just want their pictures taken together. They say, “We’re Deerhorn brothers!” Speaking from experience, […]


The 2024 Deerhorn Treasure Hunt

The schedule at camp used to be we had regular activities Monday-Saturday and Sundays were a different schedule. We changed our sessions this summer to all be 11 days long, and decided that we didn’t want to have a Sunday schedule on day 2 or 3 of a new session, when kids had just gotten […]


A Session Koogee Fun

With good weather again today, we got koogee pictures today at rest hour. It’s always fun to see personalities come out in koogee pictures. Kids love hanging out with their friends in their koogee! It was cloudy most of the day, not as hot as yesterday, and the sun even came out mid-afternoon. There was […]


Windy & Warm

We were so grateful for no rain today! It was warm and muggy all day, with the temps climbing into the high 80s and winds gusting off the lake all day.  It was so warm that horseback riding and basketball headed down to the beach for the afternoon for some water basketball.  The waterfront was […]
