Hiking, Kayaking and touring Tennessee!
With the help of our partner Field Camp Youth Expeditions, a group of promising Wilderness Works boys headed to Tennessee for a trip to the Cumberland River and a variety of enrichment experiences in the Nashville area. After kayaking on the Cumberland River our group enjoyed a private tour around the campus of Historically Black Fisk University.
Our boys particularly enjoyed the excellent National Museum of African American Museum.
We toured the Ryman Auditorium and the Parthenon as well as the Frist Museum of Art. After hiking in the amazing Cheatham Wildlife Refuge our boys enjoyed riding e-bikes up to the top of Fort Negley for panoramic views.
Other memorable visits included the Shelby Bottoms Nature Center and the Hermitage historic home of Andrew Jackson.
