Rain Rain Go Away

So hear at camp, we got stormed last night. Big time. Like there was a little swamp in front of some people's tents and some tents were leaking.
BTW, we're using platform tents, the Boy Scout kind. Me, being the SPL, was outside for most of it. It was so fun! The lightning made it as clear as day out side, only for a moment. I had to go outside to make sure everyone was OK and no other tents were leaking, if they were I'd hand them some plastic for the top of their tent.
The thunder started when most of the camp was in a field doing campwide games. So they had to stop those short (my staff was awesome at it, though) and rush everyone back to camp. I go to the comfort station to do a little bathroom business I don't want to do in the latrine, and a scout master yells in that the camp issued a siren for a storm warning. Everyone should rush back to camp. So I did, and got into my tent just as the rain started to pour. Then I get my rain gear and hop out!
So we're also worried about rain tonight and tomorrow, but hey, we're Boy Scouts, a little rain won't hurt us! (we play with fire after all...speaking of which I've confiscated two lighters and a can of ax and bug spray because they were making flame throwers)
