Camp Buck Toms

Camp Buck TomsDear SansBug Friends,

We had a great week of Boy Scout Summer Camp at Camp Buck Toms in Tennessee.  We were in 3-sided cabins known as Adirondacks.  Nice sturdy structures that shelter the weather, but open air and accessible to spiders, mosquitoes, and other varmints.  The SansBug I’s fit nicely in the bunk beds and provided both protection and peace of mind.  They were a big hit for the Scouts who had them (and the envy of those who didn’t)!

Best regards,

Located about an hour southwest of Knoxville, TN on Watts Bar Lake with over 3 miles of shoreline, Camp Buck Toms is the pride of the Great Smoky Mountain Council.  No wonder Kurt and his troop, all the way from Houston, chose it for their annual summer camp.  The camp has transitioned from the familiar canvas tents on wooden platforms to Adirondacks.  Rodents and other pests can still come in from the open side so you do need a bug tent.

Be careful when going down the steep incline to the waterfront and oh, do check for ticks.  Most ticks can’t fly or jump so they will wait on grass and shrubs along the pathway to latch on to you when you brush by.
