Day camp will be what it is. The most important part is drinking plenty of water and keeping one’s feet dry. That reminds me, I need to work on re-waterproofing my hiking boots or getting new ones. I can’t remember how long I’ve had my current pair ... 4 or 5 years?

For tenting events, we’ve got to figure out a way to keep water from getting under the tents. It must be possible! In the Old Days of Boy Scouts, you could dig a trench around the tent to keep water from flowing under, but one isn’t aloud to dig any more.

I don’t think I was in Hurricane when you got hiking boots the last time. That would have put it at least four years ago.

That’s a real poser about keeping the water from under the tents. Straw?
