Music & Molasses Festival
On October 15th,
scouts with family members volunteered to help with this year’s Music &
Molasses Festival at the Ellington Agriculture Center. The festival draws 5,000 – 6,000 visitors
each year, with proceeds benefiting the Tennessee Agriculture Museum. The festival
is a country celebration of the harvest season, with many activities
such as bluegrass music, story-tellers, country cloggers, a grist mill,
traditional crafts for sale, homemade cakes and pies, and pony rides. Scouts worked with mounted police officers in
helping direct traffic, which maximized the available parking space for
guests. The festival officials were so appreciative;
a representative came to a recent troop meeting and treated everyone to
delicious pizza! Everyone had a great
time!!!
