ELECTRONICS REMINDER 📱🕹️
One of the great benefits of heading out on any of our trips is that we’re able to unplug from our digital world for a few days. Electronics are allowed while traveling to our destinations, but we have a longstanding rule that Scouts are not allowed to use electronics while on our trips (i.e. if brought they’ll be left in vehicles and not used during the trip).
ITINERARY
Will meet at the Publix on Royal Oaks in Franklin and leave for Latimer Reservation. You will experience all of the beauty of Latimer Scout Reservation on the 10 mile mountain bike trail using a Trek 4500 bike. Your ride will take you to all of the naturally beautiful areas of the Reservation. You will see rock formations, an old coal mine which closed in the 1940's, Scott Pinnacle, Caney Fork River Gorge, waterfall and the overlook. Keep in mind that the terrain around Latimer Reservation goes from very easy to very challenging. This is no ride in the park!
