Smoky Scouting
Posted by admin under: Community Partners .
When I saw this story I immediately thought of Smoky Scout who completed her quest to travel all the trails on her Smoky Mountains in North Carolina. Now, a local resource has created a program designed specifically for Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts to help them on their quest to learn more and achieve more according to Blount Today.
This year, the Great Smoky Mountains Heritage Center of Townsend is expanding its programming to accommodate Boy and Girl Scouts throughout the region.
Sponsored by Foothills Kiwanis and the Cornerstone Foundation, these programs enable Cub Scouts, Brownies and Junior Girl Scouts to attain select badges or achievements. Scouts of other ages can also receive customized programming.
…
The Scout programs are available year-round and at any time of day but must be scheduled four weeks in advance. Programs generally last from two to four hours and cost from $3 to $15 per Scout. Contact the Heritage Center at 865-448-0044 for more information or to schedule a visit.
Sounds great. Maybe I should try to talk my local nature center into this kind of deal since a lot of Eagle Scouts do their projects there. A little PR never hurt.
