Camp Boxwell at Linton, 1921-1929

Camp Boxwell at Linton, Tennessee was the very first Boxwell. The summer camp of the Nashville Area Council, Camp Boxwell was named after Leslie G. Boxwell, the chair of the new Council's Camping Committee. Boxwell had been charged with finding a location for the council's summer program and it was because of his efforts that the camp was named for him by the Council's Executive Committee in July 1921.

The first week of camp opened on July 5, 1921. The camp was located where modern day Highway 100 crosses the South Harpeth River. And while the camp bore the name of Leslie G. Boxwell, it was Council Executive William Anderson who made the camp work. It was his vision of program that the camp used. A "Scout School" in the morning and organized play and activities in the afternoon, the first Boxwell was a very different beast from the modern camp. The boys made the rules of the camp and punished those who violated the rules. This idea of citizenship was the central focus, not advancement.

Below is a list of staff and Scouts who attended Camp Boxwell at Linton from 1921-1929. This list was compiled from names that were printed in The Nashville Banner and The Nashville Tennessean. Some weeks look thin; this is because Scouts often stayed for two weeks. As a result, the papers only listed the new Scouts who came to camp. While each week ran approximately 80 Scouts, the list below provides only the names that made it into the permanent record of the newspapers. No Council records exist.
