Closing day of a session is always an adventure, but yesterday the universe decided to throw a little extra chaos our way when there was a huge area-wide internet outage that lasted the entire day. It made communication a little trickier around here, so we apologize for any delay responding to emails. It also reminded […]

This session has just flown by and it’s hard to believe it ends tomorrow. The day dawned sunny and warm again today, and breakfast was sausage and egg bagel sandwiches and tater tots. This morning was the last three periods of regular activities and kids worked hard to earn those last stars. After sloppy joes […]

Some people come to camp with friends. Others come with their brothers or cousins. And some come to Deerhorn knowing no one at all. But however campers arrive at Deerhorn, the brotherhood is waiting for everyone. Deerhorn is referred to time and again as a family, and kids often talk about their Deerhorn brothers. Friendships […]

Sundays look a little different at Camp Deerhorn. For starters, we get to sleep in an hour, with the bell ringing at 8:15 and breakfast at 9. After breakfast, kids enjoy some rare free time around camp. There were lots of kids playing tennis, gaga ball, and knockout on the lower basketball court. We have […]

We managed to get all of the koogee photos accomplished yesterday. Sometimes it’s a bit like wrangling cats. 😉 They love having koogee photos taken, and it’s so fun to see personalities come out as they do silly faces and wacky poses. Many kids will say that living in a koogee is their favorite part […]

The sun is still shining, and activities are in full swing. Some days, we just rejoice in the routine, the smiles around us, and the friendships being made. Some days we love simply sharing the pictures of the fun that surrounds us on a daily basis. A picture really is worth 1,000 words.

This A session is just flying by. The weather has been amazing, friends are helping friends through homesickness, and everywhere you look, kids are smiling and running to their next activity because they are so excited to get there. The gaga ball pit got immediate use after dinner last night, as kids were super excited […]

The sun was shining once again for our first full day of A session. Many kids were up bright and early this morning, playing basketball or tennis long before the bell rang at 7:15am. They are EXCITED! Breakfast this morning was french toast sticks and sausages, and lunch was Philly cheese steak sandwiches. After breakfast, […]

We are grateful that we woke to clear sunny skies for our opening day of A session. The 44 kids who stayed over from Father Son camp had a great time at the waterpark yesterday and were excited to greet all the arriving kids today. Breakfast was biscuits and gravy and scrambled eggs, and lunch […]

Our second Father Son session ended this morning and it was a great one! We had breakfast at 8 of bacon, scrambled eggs, and potatoes, and then some dads stuck around for activities, which we had running until 11am. The morning of this changeover can be a little chaotic, trying to get koogees cleaned and […]
