The LCO Outdoor Club met on January 29, 1999. The subject of the meeting was "Cold Weather Survival." The members received a demonstration on how to survive if stranded in very cold weather.

The presentation begins



Club Members watch intently as Mr.Serigny
starts a fire with steel wool and a 9-v battery!



Starting the fire!



The Film comes next!



The members attention is riveted on the film.



We have a volunteer for the demonstration.
The brave volunteer is Douglas Duet.



Wool underwear works best!



A sweater provides the best insulating properties.



A jacket of closed cell foam provides warmth and floatation.



Insulated-foot boots provide best foot warmth.



The ears and head are protected using a wool cap.



Can any of you guess what this is?



Right! Waterproof pants!!



The presentation ends and all the outdoor club members
can now survive a hunting trip in southern Louisiana.
