Heels over head for Cooper. Raft slides are what the kids beg for the entire trip, and when they finally take matters into their own hands to make one happen it’s not only a lesson in rigging and derigging the boat, but checking for all the safety things that need to be in place-depth of water, a good clear runway, and a smooth surface to slide on. Then-it’s a game that everyone wants to be involved in with smiles, laughter and memories that sustain us until the next trip.
