Fun on a Sunday
Sundays are a little different around Deerhorn, and we all welcome the change in routine. We sleep in an extra hour and have breakfast (french toast) at 9:00. After that, it’s some rare free time. But even though there aren’t regular activities, there was still a lot going on this morning. The E session […]
Settling In
As expected, our E session boys were up early this morning, right around 6am, ready to get this party started! We had cinnamon toast for breakfast and headed off to activities. When we announced at breakfast the three activities that the E session kids had this morning, it was skiing…”YES!” and basketball…”YES!!” and riflery….”YESSSSSS!!!!” […]
Slip & SLIDE
Our E session boys arrived today, our “Spike Bucks”. They are 7-10 years old and are coming to Camp Deerhorn for the first time. They bring an energy and excitement into camp with them, as well as LOTS of questions. We are happy to answer them as we welcome them into the Deerhorn Family. […]
The Voyage has Begun
Our Voyager crew left this morning at 7am with 14 kids and 4 leaders. They were excited to finally be able to set off on the expedition they have been working toward for three weeks, and looking forward to for months. It was pouring rain when they woke up this morning, but that didn’t stop […]
Wahoo!!
It was a warm, beautiful day at Deerhorn, packed full of fun and excitement. Since the Lake Superior Trip was still gone, we slept in an hour this morning and had breakfast at 9am. (pancake wrapped sausages on a stick that looked deceptively like corn dogs for breakfast) Since we slept late, we only […]
So Much Fun
Things are a little different around here for the next two days. The Lake Superior Trip left this morning after breakfast, with 35 kids gone for today and tomorrow. There had to be some changes in the schedule because of massive flooding that occurred in northern Wisconsin a week ago. (Not us! WAY northern Wisconsin) Usually the […]
Deerhorn Smiles
After blueberry scones for breakfast, kids spent the morning in regular activities. Sports & Games played baseball, and the lake was perfectly calm for skiing. Before lunch, we announced the teams for C session, and kids were super excited for that news. After chicken pot pie for lunch, this afternoon was […]
No More Clouds
We woke this morning to a pretty grey sky, with strong possibilities of afternoon thunderstorms. However, by early afternoon, the clouds had cleared and the sun shone the rest of the day. It actually turned into quite a beautiful day! This morning’s breakfast was french toast, and afterwards kids headed back to their koogees to […]
Let’s Go, C Session!
Saturday morning means cinnamon toast for breakfast at Camp Deerhorn. After breakfast, campers returned to their koogees to clean up and get ready for the day. They were split into temporary activity groups by age, groups just for today. As campers arrived by car, they joined in the fun, doing activities like sprout ball, archery, and […]
Goodbyes
B Session ended today and we had our awards breakfast (waffles with strawberries) this morning. Lots of awards were given out, including patches for stars earned in activities, and Most Improved patches in each activity as well. The ping pong tournament champion was Michael Thistlethwaite, and Sharpshooter awards for high scores in riflery went to […]
