The Water Campfire
What a day…it’s hard to put into words the last day of a Deerhorn summer…but I will try! We’ll get the menu out of the way first…cinnamon toast for breakfast, pizza bagels for lunch, and chicken fajitas for dinner. It doesn’t get much better than that. And the weather…the sun shone most of the day, with […]
Klepton & Other Fun
Every day, the Sports & Games counselors get up at breakfast to announce what game they will be playing that day. As I have mentioned before, some are your traditional sports like baseball or soccer, but others are games 100% made up by counselors at Deerhorn. And every day when that counselor gets up to […]
Friendship
Today was another beautiful day of sunshine and blue skies. We had an awesome day of meals, with coffee cake for breakfast, Italian subs for lunch, and chicken and biscuits for dinner. Sports and Games played a game on DK Field called “Gasebolf,” which involves hitting a tennis ball with a golf club at home […]
Another Great Day!
Kids enjoyed lots more sunshine at camp today. We had french toast for breakfast and then they were off to activities! Sports & Games played ultimate frisbee on the soccer field, which everyone loves. After sloppy joes for lunch, it was time for more fun in the sun. There were lots of trips down […]
Fun in the Sun
The clouds finally cleared after a dreary weekend, and we were all excited to see the sun again today. After a laidback Sunday, kids were ready to jump back into regular activities, as they are realizing just how short this session really is…we’re halfway done?!?!?! Breakfast this morning was blueberry scones, lunch was meatball subs, […]
On His Own
Sundays are a little different around Deerhorn. We all get pretty excited to sleep in an extra hour and have breakfast at 9, which this morning was pancakes. After breakfast, kids enjoy a morning of free time, and some chose to play street hockey up on the Skeeter. At noon, Luke gave the Words […]
The Deerhorn Way
The leaders did their draft last night and so at the end of morning activities, kids got to find out what teams they were on. There is always lots of excitement surrounding that event, but never as much as during D session. There were already lots of team cheers and chanting even just while they […]
Rain Won’t Stop Us!
We’ve had a really great stretch of weather for weeks, with lots of sunshine and hardly any rain…but alas, it had to come to an end sometime. Luckily, this rainy day seems to be the only one on the horizon and it really hasn’t slowed anything down around here. They were calling for rain all […]
And We’re Off!
We are all so excited to get D Session started! We said goodbye to lots of great friends yesterday, in a session that only was about 8% new faces, and today we open a session with 45% of the kids coming to camp for the first time. So if your camper is new to Deerhorn […]
Time for Goodbyes
We ended our C session this morning with our awards breakfast. Many awards were passed out, including Most Improved Patches and those patches earned for stars. We had lots of tournaments running this session, most organized by campers like Cooper Pierce (chess), Ben Fellows & Nick Chu (pickle ball), and Inigo Banos (ping pong). Thanks to […]
