Illuminated tent apparatus and illuminated garment apparatus

A tent apparatus comprising:

• (a) a support frame;
• (b) a flexible sheet carried on the support frame;
• (c) an attachment assembly attached to the flexible sheet, wherein the attachment assembly comprises a substantially flat base section and a substantially oval shaped attachment member extending outwardly from the base section;
• and
• (d) a light assembly releasably attached to the attachment assembly and comprising a housing section containing at least one light emitting device therein, the light assembly comprising an attachment section defining a substantially oval shaped recess sized and shaped to receive the attachment member of the attachment assembly, whereby the light assembly and the attachment assembly are releasably attached to each other by complementary frictional engagement of the attachment member of the attachment assembly and the attachment section of the light assembly when the attachment member is positioned within the attachment section.

A garment apparatus comprising a garment and a light assembly releasably attached to the garment, the light assembly comprising:

• (a) at least one fiber optic cable;
• (b) a housing containing a light emitting diode operatively connected to the at least one fiber optic cable, the housing defining a portal shaped and sized to receive and frictionally engage a first end of the at least one fiber optic cable, the light emitting diode emitting light into the at least one fiber optic cable whereby the cable is illuminated;
• and
• (c) wherein a first recess is formed in the garment to receive and retain the at least one fiber optic cable therein.

A garment apparatus comprising:

• (a) a garment;
• (b) an attachment assembly comprising a substantially flat base section and an attachment member extending outwardly from the base section, the base section of the attachment assembly attached to an outer surface of the garment;
• and
• (c) a light assembly releasably attached to the attachment assembly and comprising a housing section containing at least one light emitting device therein, wherein the light assembly comprises an attachment section adapted for releasable attachment to the attachment assembly, the attachment section defining a recess having a size and shape that is complementary to the attachment member of the attachment assembly, whereby the light assembly and the attachment assembly are releasably attached to each other by complementary frictional engagement of the attachment member of the attachment assembly and the attachment section of the light assembly when the attachment member is positioned within the attachment section.
