Riley and Brian went to Camp Jeremiah Johnson for the Yukon Scout Winter Overnight Campout. Riley went to his Ski lessons at Sundance and then Brian picked him up right after and they headed out. It was a rainy day already, but it had cleared up. We had everything that we could think of for them to be warm and dry to sleep overnight. Apparently, we were not all prepared. The tent leaked water during the night and Riley slept in a puddle of ice cold water. His sleeping bag, snow pants, coat, gloves and backpack were all soaking wet. Good thing we packed extra clothes and gloves for him. To say the least, Riley was not all excited to stay and do the activites with the new scouts, but Brian was able to get his snow pants and coat dry by the campfire so he could stay. There were 3 new scouts and 2 scouts. The 5 of them raced a Klondike sled and also shot sling shots with paint balls. Riley seemed to have a good time after he was dry and warm. Next time we will buy and new tent to make sure they are kept dry and warm.
