Tired But Happy
Other than a brief shower this afternoon, we enjoyed another day of incredible weather at Deerhorn! More sun, more breeze, and slightly cooler temperatures made for perfect Deerhorn weather. Breakfast was pancakes, which is always a favorite, and lunch was chicken patties, also a crowd pleaser. As always, riflery and archery were packed most of […]
Let’s Do It Again!
Our first Father Son camp ended yesterday and it was amazing. I realized there was no blog yesterday because we were so busy preparing for our next Father Son session! One of the greatest gifts of our job is getting to meet so many incredible people…people we count ourselves lucky to call friends. Hugging old […]
So Good
It really is, friends…life is so good. The sun was shining, the smiles were wide, and we were surrounded by some of the best people you could ever hope to meet. It was another incredible day at Deerhorn, when even the weather cooperated. Breakfast this morning was scrambled eggs and toast, and then it was […]
Here Comes the Sun!
This picture pretty much sums up how excited we all were for the sun to come out this morning! We were blessed with the most beautiful, warm day, and the waterfront was the happening place, with lines for the Rave most of the day. There was definitely still lots of action at the other activities…riflery […]
Ready…Set…GO!
Welcome to the summer of 2017! Today was the first day of our first Father Son camp. The day dawned bright and beautiful, warm and promising…we wish it would have stayed that way! Dads who arrived this morning were able to get in a morning of activities before thunderstorms came through at lunch. Even in […]
The Last Ride…
…the last Rave launch…the last dinner in the dining hall…the last trip down the waterslide. The summer of 2016 is almost over and we finished it off in style. Today was our guided fishing day, so after omelets for breakfast, dads and sons were excited to go catch the big musky! There were a […]
Glorious
No better way to describe the day at camp than simply glorious. It was a perfect 85 degrees with a breeze off the lake, and the lake water the warmest it’s ever been. After pancakes for breakfast, fathers and sons were off to activities! Riflery and archery are always popular during Father Son camp, […]
Best for Last
We welcomed another group of fathers and sons today for our final session of the summer, Father Son Camp 4. Many of them were here bright and early after breakfast to get as much action in as possible in the first day! After bagels for breakfast, we opened up all the activities starting at 9am, […]
Another Goodbye
…And in a blink, D session is over. We had our awards breakfast this morning, and lots of awards were passed out, including some end of the summer awards. The tennis tournament trophies were given out to Will McHugh for 11 and under and James Theriault for 12 and up (and he’s an 11 year old! […]
The Water Campfire
We woke this morning to blue skies and doughnuts for breakfast…doesn’t get much better than that!…except it does when you’re at Deerhorn! This morning was the last three activity periods of the summer. Campers made the most of their time to work on stars and just plain have fun, like many trips down the waterslide! […]
