The Old Hickory Council offers an exciting array of shooting sports activities at Camp Raven Knob, from BB guns for Cub Scouts to pistol shooting for Venture Crews. During summer camp Archery, Rifle Shooting, and Shotgun Shooting merit badges are offered, along with Pistol Shooting for Venture Crew members. In the non-summer camp season, troops and crews have the opportunity to schedule a “troop shoot” on selected dates that are posted here: Shooting Sports Reservation ScheduleThe Old Hickory Council/Camp Raven Knob Shooting Sports Team will be available on the following dates to open the ranges at CRK for Troop and Crew shoots: Fall 2018: September 15, November 10, December 8Spring 2019: January 12, February 16, March 23, April 27To reserve one of these dates and obtain required forms and fee schedule, contact David Haymore (dhaymore@surry.net).

Please have an accurate headcount of how many will be participating in order for the required number of certified staff to be scheduled.
