Warriors Path Outings
Dear Friends –
We at Warriors’ Path State Park are looking forward to a winter full of outdoor discovery! Here is just a partial listing of some of the special events planned for the coming late fall and winter season:
Nov 17 – INTRO TO MAP & COMPASS
Go “old school” with your land navigation skills! Learn to use these classic outdoor tools to find your way across the landscape.
Dec 1 – WINTER TREE KEYS
Learn to use a botanical key to identify native trees. Get to know your “woody neighbors” on a “first-name” basis!
Jan 21 – WINTER GARDEN SEMINAR – WILD EDIBLES & MEDICINALS
Nationally-renowned wildcrafter Ila Hatter will teach us traditional uses of common plants – how to make nature’s pantry & medicine cabinet our own.
Feb 25 – ADOPT A TREE
You can make a big difference for our future! Help us bring “re-leaf” to Northeast Tennessee by planting tomorrow’s forests.
Mar 16 – FROG WATCH @ JACOB’S NATURE PARK
Celebrate the approach of Spring with a frog concert! Enjoy a wetland field trip to listen to all the frog sounds at nearby Jacob’s Nature Park.
As always, you can get all the details and preregister for park events at the events page on our park website:
https://tnstateparks.com/parks/events/warriors-path/#/?park=warriors-path
Please do contact me if you need additional information, or if there is any other way I can be of service to you. Best wishes for a wonderful wintertime to you and yours!
Have a great day!

2023 Summer Camp – Class Registration for Early Birds
Is there a merit badge class at camp that you really would like to take, but fills up quickly… like Cooking*, Fishing, or Welding? Class registration for 2023 Summer Camp at Camp Davy Crockett is opening very early – now starting October 1, 2022. Grab desirable classes by first checking the one-page worksheet and/or the class catalogue and then letting Mr. Hasler know by email or in writing (with your name!). You’ll be informed when your schedule is entered.
Payment for Summer Camp (June 18-24, 2023) will be posted later once better information is available – likely after the Recharter effort is done. One reported change is that there will not be class fees, but the base camp fee was increased to save time adjusting these for every scout participant.
