Description

Join us at Enterprise Park for a day of boxing!! http://www.hamiltontn.gov/esnp/

This is Chattanooga's newest park with over 2,800 acres of woods, miles and miles of trails for biking and hiking! There are trails on hills of course, but also trails with flat sections. I hope to bring boxing to everyone from: wheelchair accessible to kid friendly, extreme boxin', long-haul hides and some saturated trails. Something for everyone! Stamp donations really appreciated!!

Meet us for dinner at Terminal Brewhouse in Chattanooga! THe Maibock is my fav and The Soup is spicy and tangy and ooey gooey delicious :) There is a separate sign-up page for dinner so that I can make reservations.

Places to stay:
Choo Choo Holiday Inn (NEXT to Terminal Brewhouse) http://www.choochoo.com/
Chester Frost State Park http://www.outdoorchattanooga.com/1484.htm this is miles away in HIxson on the Tn river and Chickamauga Lake. It's a great place for families to camp!
Multiple other hotels in downtown Chattanooga and Shallowford Rd area near Hamilton Mall: http://www.expedia.com/Downtown-Chattanooga-Chattanooga-Hotels.0-n6059791-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels

I'm glad to see all the interest in this event! I'll do my best to make sure there's something for everyone.

Update 4-7-14

Yes, it's happening, only 5 more days until Bunker Boxin'!! Looks like we're going to have wonderful weather for it too, none of that old cold winter stuff. Let's get those legs stretched, heart pumped, fingers inky and enjoy the spring day with some letterboxing, woot.

Clue packets will be distributed at the parking lot at 10:00 am. Just drive past the visitor center when after you enter the park and it will be on the right. We will have a table set up near the parking lot. See map
There are no pavilions at this park so we will not be having any pot luck. (Any table toppers can be presented during dinner after the event.) There are quite a few picnic areas though. So please make plans to bring you own lunch and drinks, or make a food run if you so desire.

We decided to keep everything more centrally located to the park for convenience and time sake.
For dinner we will meet up directly after the event at O'Charley's restaurant, which is 4 miles from the Enterprise Park instead of driving into downtown Chattanooga.

If your looking for places to crash at afterwards or even before, there are hotels all around this area. It's very commercial oriented for out-of-towners. Many hotel choices close to the event, can be found at exit 5 or 7 off of I 75. Exit 5 hotels range from $60.00 – $130.00 a night, while exit 7 hotels range from $35.00 – $80.00 a night.

We've been working diligently getting the event ready and hope everyone will come out, enjoy the camaraderie and have fun. This is a very cool park with some interesting history behind it. Sorry there won't be any event boxes planted here at night. The park closes at 7:00 pm. But certainly feel free to box into the night on your own locally.

By the way if anyone is interested in buying a 25 mile TN pathtag please see scouttrekkie.

Apr 14, 2014: Bunker Boxing - All boxes should be listed on AQ now.
Hope you get them all registered now and any future hunters can work out their finds from what we have posted as well.

Thank you all for your comments so far and we have have made some of the adjustments you have told us about already.

See you all at the next event or on the trail.
