Ready to Go!

Today was food packing day for our Voyagers. It’s their favorite part of pre-trip planning, as they get to see all of the food they are going to eat for the eight days of their kayaking trip. They leave Sunday, and they are so excited to go!     We had some rain this morning […]


The View From Camp

The sun is shining once again. The Voyagers spent the afternoon on the lake doing kayak basic safety in preparation for leaving for their 8 day trip on Sunday. Sports and Games played Klepton on the soccer field, which is a big camper favorite. The view from camp is full of action, smiles, and fun! […]


Brothers of All Ages

I started doing brother pictures awhile back, just to make sure I got a pic of brothers who were sharing the Deerhorn experience together. But these days, every time I make the announcement, it’s not just brothers who show up. It’s cousins, and friends, boys who just want their photo taken together…boys who consider themselves […]


Back Home Again

The Lake Superior Trip returned home this afternoon around 4:30 and camp is full once again. They had a great trip, with good weather and tons of fun. This morning they picked 85 pounds of cherries before heading to breakfast. On the way home, they went hiking at Copper Falls State Park. Here it’s been […]


Busy, busy, busy!

It feels like the session just started, but it has been a whirlwind of a few days. Yesterday afternoon was busy with the big Sunday event, and then we had to get a group of kids ready for the Lake Superior Trip, which left today. There are 23 kids on that trip, and it left […]


2022 Puggawagan

We love Sundays at Camp Deerhorn! There’s always a huge cheer Saturday night at dinner when we announce that we’re sleeping in Sunday morning. Sundays are also a break in the routine, where we get to do something a little different. We had scrambled eggs, sausage, and hash browns for breakfast at 9am instead of […]


Endless Fun

The sun shines, the breeze blows off the lake, the skies are blue, and the fun is endless around here! Kids found out this morning what team they were on, and that’s always super exciting. Breakfast was delicious homemade pancakes, lunch was  chicken tenders and curly fries, and dinner was spaghetti and meatballs. Now that […]


Running

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 […]


C Session is Here!

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, […]


B Session Goodbyes

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 […]
