COLD! Very Cold! And wet, that is how night one of the Patrol Challenge ended.

The Patrol Challenge is a special treasure hunt meets amazing race meets photo safari meets driving a million miles around LA meets Scouts-both boys and girls.

And it is FUN!!! Our girls really didn't know what to expect when the challenge was released at 5pm on Friday night. All they knew was that they were in for a long weekend and had been planning lots of fun, gathering snacks, planning on packing and sleeping in Patti's back yard. So when 5 rolls around, we reviewed the rules and then broke into our three patrols:

The Bacon Dogz: Vanessa, Cate, and Sophia with special appearances from Celeste and Giselle Mai had the flu and was missed :(

The Red Hot Wiener Dogs: Carolina, Rebecca, Charlotte, and Alisa

The Rainbow Zebras: Jessi, Taylor, Emily, and Stephanie

From there we all got to work. Night one was largely working on the computers to plan a route, and gathering items on the collectibles list. And then it was read: A photo of everyone chest deep in a swimming pool-fully clothed! So away to the pool it went for Patti's group and Julie's group-Gloria was smart! They came the next day when they could change into warm clothes but it was up to the girls and we let them do what they wanted to do!

We sent them home soaked to the core and said be here early in the morning!

Fun times,

♥♥ Julie
