Boxwell
Reservation is located on Old Hickory Lake in Wilson County on State
Highway 109, five miles south of Gallatin near LaGuardo, Tennessee. Its
beautiful location features rolling hills with lots of good campsites
and hiking trails. The surrounding waters are excellent for swimming,
canoeing, fishing and other aquatic activities. For these reasons and
because of its central location, it was chosen to meet the needs of
Scout units in the Middle Tennessee Council.
The
camps within the reservation are named for other outstanding citizens
and Scouters. The developed camps include Camp Stahlman, Camp Parnell,
Camp Craig, Gaylord Cubworld, and the Percy Dempsey Camporee Site. Camp
Light, Explorer Island and Camp Beanie Elam have been kept as
wilderness sites. Additional areas at Boxwell include the Venture
Center, Swimming Pool and Shotgun Range. Boxwell Reservation is rich in
tradition and widely considered one of the very best summer camp
facilities in the United States.
