Barrett and Nolan both played hockey in Rapid City, SD for this Jamboree. Barrett played other first and second year 8 and under kids in cross-ice games using the little goals. He scored a few goals over the weekend and had a great time once we reminded him that it was OK to steal the puck from the other team's players.
The mascot for the new CHL team in Rapid City was around the rink Sunday and helped give the little kids their medals. Below, Barrett is receiving his medal.
Capitals A team below. We only had 5 kids sign up for the trip, but it worked out great and they had a blast getting to play so much hockey!

After leaving Rapid City, we went up to Keystone and on to Mount Rushmore for lunch and to view the monument. Below are several photos from our few hours there. It was very interesting because other than a choir group, almost all the other people at the monument were Cheyenne hockey families!
Of course, our little geography bugs really loved the walkway with all the state flags! Delaware even has Nolan's birthday on the flag!
After we had lunch, we went out to the main viewing place. Amy, one of Barrett's teammates, and her sister Mia joined Nolan and Barrett for a great "imitation" picture of the monument. They really tried hard to look the same directions as the faces behind them. It was a great time!
Other than our groceries for our picnic lunch and Barrett's blink, this is a good family picture!
