Family and friends attended "our" premiere party on Monday, March 4th, in Redlands, California, for the new National Geographic show, Are You Tougher Tan a Boy Scout? which features my cousin's son, Rio Gifford.

Hundreds of Boy Scouts from across the country auditioned and only 12 were chosen. Rio is one of the few Scouts that appears in every episode.  

About the Show

"Are You Tougher Than a Boy Scout? is an exciting yet moving, reality competition series wherein 6 elite Boy Scouts will compete against different adult men in a variety of scout-based challenges. Over a course of three days and two nights, the scouts will compete and judge the adults in adventurous challenges." - National Geo Channel

Congratulations Rio - a star is born!
