I had the chance to stop by Grundy County a couple a weeks ago to check out one of the most popular Boy Scout camps around. Once inside, the camp looked normal with several boys attending classes taught at the camp, but just a short drive down a dirt road led us to a brand new C.O.P.E, course taking these young men on a high adventure. Check out the video for more on Skymont Scout Reservation and the new COPE course!
Not a scout but are interested in this high adventure? Good news! The Cherokee Area Council of the Boy Scouts in Chattanooga will soon allow Corporate Team Building Outings for up to 20 people! If your buisness is interested? Call 423-892-8323.
