Monkey Monday
Today was Sunday in the land of Deerhorn. We flipped Sunday and Monday schedules so that our Voyagers were back to do the Monkey Relays. So we slept in an hour and had breakfast at 9. Kids enjoyed free time after breakfast. Counselors did basketball and ultimate frisbee games, but most kids were busy this […]
The Boys Are Back in Town
Banner day at Camp Deerhorn! Our 16 E session campers were up at 5:30 this morning, so excited to see their parents and tell them all about what an awesome time they had at Deerhorn for the week. They’re already planning to come back for 2 or 3 weeks next summer. They showed their parents […]
Dog Days of Summer
We hear it’s been a hot week across the United States. We are grateful that here in the Northwoods, we get to escape the worst of it. We had a couple of days that hit 90 and it was definitely hot. But most highs this week have been in the low 80s, with lower humidity […]
GORGEOUS!
It was another idyllic day at camp. The sun was shining, the breeze blew, and the sky was blue all day. I could tell you about how it was waffles for breakfast and homemade pizza for lunch. I could tell you that Sports and Games played Klepton on the soccer field. But sometimes it’s more […]
Fun for All Ages
Since our E and F kids arrived on Monday, we wanted to make sure that we got koogee pictures that included them. But, of course, there were others who wanted to join in the fun as well. Whether it’s E session kids doing a nice koogee picture together… …or the Leaders who will never miss […]
Hooray for Today
We woke up to clouds and rain this morning, but not long after breakfast the rain had stopped, making way for a warm, mostly sunny day at Deerhorn. Breakfast was blueberry pancakes and lunch was chicken tenders. Sports & Games played Quidditch on the soccer field…minus the flying broomsticks, of course! It’s yet another crazy […]
Wind & Sun
We woke up to cloudy skies and a little bit of rain for awhile this morning. But that didn’t slow the action down at all, and by lunch time, the sun had come out from behind the clouds. It’s been a really windy afternoon, perfect for some sailboat action, but a little tough for skiers. […]
Energy
What a fun day around camp! Today we welcomed 25 kids to camp with the start of our E and F sessions. E session boys will stay a week, while F session kids are here for ten days, until the end of C session. A few kids have been to camp before, but 22 of […]
Here and There
Our Voyagers left this morning bright and early at 7am. After weeks of preparation, they were excited to finally be hitting the road. It was a six hour drive to Voyageurs National Park, and I have no doubt there was lots of sleeping happening on the bus. It’s a brand new destination for the Voyager […]
Let the Good Times Roll
We woke to fog so thick we could barely see past the A-Dock, but by lunch the fog had cleared and the sun peeked through occasionally all afternoon. It warmed up to 80 degrees and kids had a great time jumping on the Rave, skiing, and playing with the paddle boards. Breakfast this morning was […]
