Spring Cub and Family
Cub and Family was held April 19 – 21 at Tims Ford State Park. The theme of Cub Scout Boot Camp included archery, BB’s, hiking, and obstacle course and t-shirt relay. There were 16 Cub Scout Packs which participated, for a total of 107 Cub Scouts and 288 campers during the weekend event. Thank you to the District Camping Committee, Crew 391, and Troop 391 for hosting this wonderful event.

Boy Scout Spring Camporee
Several inches of rain and thunderstorms caused the Spring Camporee to be cancelled. The theme will be brought back in a future camporee, so be prepared for a competition between the Scouts and Scout leaders!

Cub Scout Day Camp
Elk River District held its summer day camp on June 3 – 7, 2013 at the Tennessee Correctional Academy in Tullahoma. The National Guard came by for a memorable visit on Friday. Thank you to Camp Director Elaine Posanka, Program Director Bruce Warpool, and the Tennessee Correctional Academy for providing a great camp experience for the Cub Scouts.
