Andrew's First Klondike Derby

Ben took Andrew to his very first Klondike Derby.  It was at Cooney Dam, and my understanding was that they would camp overnight, and then do little stations around the lake.  However, Ben must have strategically forgot to mention that the activities were not by the lake -- they were on the lake.  I was still recovering from back surgery, so who knows if I would have even noticed, but had I been of sound mind and body AND known that he would be running and sliding on an ice-covered lake, I might have changed my mind about the whole thing.
 
Apparently, it was safe enough, because everybody came home safe and sound.
 
I'm not sure exactly what they did, but I do know that Andrew helped make breakfast for the whole Ward, and something happened with some sort of sled.  It's probably best that I don't have any other information.
