MTCBSA, ER District, Cache To Eagle #6 Traditional Cache

This series of caches is part of a nationwide geocaching series called ― Cache to Eagle! ― and it highlights another component of Scouting: Service. All Scouts perform many hours of community service, from collecting food each year to a myriad of conservation projects.

Reaching the rank of Eagle Scout in the Boy Scouts of America requires years of dedication and hard work. In addition to 21 required merit badges, each Scout must complete a project that — on average — requires 167 service hours. In 2008 alone, that translated to $16 million in service (based on the national volunteer hour value of $19.51).

Cache to Eagle - This program has each district placing 12 traditional caches located in or near an Eagle Scout Project. Each cache will have a keyword. If a scout / leader collects all keywords, they are eligible for a MTC Cache to Eagle Patch that will be available in the MTC Scout Shops.

This cache highlights the Eagle Scout Project of a scout from Troop 370. The cache had to be placed just down the road from the project due to a cache already being there. The 100+ yearold log cabin just over 500 ft away used to be in Tullahoma and was relocated to this spot so that it could be kept as a historic structure.

Please us stealth and place back as found.
