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 […]
Brothers
It’s the last full day of B session and today has been just as busy as the days before. After bagels for breakfast, kids had the last three periods of activities this morning. After chili for lunch, and the longest No-Name Lost and Found Parade ever, kids headed back to their koogees to pack up […]
Tom Foolery
It was another great day of meals at Deerhorn, with pancakes for breakfast, Italian subs for lunch (another crowd favorite), and chicken and biscuits for dinner (with chocolate cupcakes for dessert). The weather couldn’t have been better either, although skiing would have liked a little less wind! We finally managed to get all of the […]
Ping Pong & Pizza Bagels
Tonight at dinner I heard from more than one camper, “This is the best day of meals ever!” We had doughnuts for breakfast, pizza bagels for lunch, and tortellini for dinner (with rice krispy treats for dessert). You can always tell when it’s pizza bagels for lunch, because the dining room is SO quiet! […]
Here Comes the Sun!
The morning dawned cloudy and grey and rain threatened to fall…but it didn’t and by the afternoon the sun had emerged making for a great afternoon on the waterfront. We had eggs and toast for breakfast, fish sandwiches for lunch, and a crowd favorite, Thanksgiving, for dinner, complete with turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, and pumpkin […]
Pugawaggan
Sundays are super fun at Camp Deerhorn. This is the only true Sunday we have had for this session because of where our changeover days fell. So we were all excited to sleep in an extra hour before enjoying french toast at 9 for breakfast. After breakfast, campers enjoyed some free time around camp, which […]
The Boys are Back in Town!
Our Pioneers arrived back at camp today around 4, bursting with laughter and stories about their five days of backpacking in the Porkies. We sent them straight to the showers! They had a great time, and we were all glad to see them! Back at camp, it was activities as usual in the beautiful […]
Halfway Already?
We all had a great time at the hockey game last night! With the four leaders as our well-dressed coaches, goal scoring by both sides, and lots of cheering in the stands, it was a great night for Deerhorn hockey. We always have fun cheering on our favorite guys. We had cinnamon rolls for breakfast, […]
It’s a Great Day for Hockey!
Kids had such a great time last night playing Civil War. Each team has 8 pieces of “treasure” in a quadrant of camp to protect…koogee row, soccer field, baseball field, and beach. The goal is to try to steal the other team’s “treasure” like in Capture the Flag, and the team with the most treasure […]
