I found one of my family tent poles is broken. How to fix that?


Answer
The easier way to fix the tent poles is to use tent pole repair sleeves. You should count your broken tent poles then go to a sporting goods store and buy as many sleeves as you have broken tent poles. Slip the tent pole repair sleeve over the broken tent pole, and wrap duct tape around the top and bottom of the sleeve to further secure it in place.

If you are not able to find a tent repair sleeve in the nearby store, you can go to a hardware store and buy some aluminum roof flashing and nylon clamps. These things can also help you to fix the tent poles. You need to cut the aluminum flashing to size with tin snips and wrap it around the broken sections of the tent pole. After that, put clamps at the top and bottom of the sleeve you have created to secure it in place. At last, you need to wrap the aluminum flashing with duct tape to cover any sharp edges.

Can I let my dog sleep in the family tent?

We are planning our first family camping trip! We will take our six-month old Corgi with us. The problem is, can I let him sleep in our tent? Or should I buy him a dog tent? But he always sleeps with me since he came to our home.


Answer
Let him sleep.with you if he is a puppy he wont be safe on his own outside in the woods with wildlife and stuff. You don't want to trap him by himself in anything he can't get out of.
