The Old Hickory Council is proud to announce the retirement of District Director, Kevin C. Cheek.

Kevin is an Eagle Scout from Troop 622 in Thurmond, North Carolina. Over the years, he dedicated 23 summers to serving on the Camp Raven K**b Staff as the camp health officer, helping ensure a safe and memorable experience for countless Scouts.
Kevin joined the professional staff of the Old Hickory Council in 1997 as the Learning for Life Coordinator. Afterwards, he proudly served as a District Executive for both Dogwood and Laurel Districts. Through his strong leadership and commitment to Scouting, Kevin achieved many successes working alongside dedicated volunteers and was eventually promoted to District Director.

The Old Hickory Council is grateful for Kevin’s many years of service and leadership. His contributions to Scouting have impacted generations of youth, and his legacy will continue for many years to come. A retirement celebration event honoring Kevin will be held on Thursday, April 16, from 6:00–7:30 PM at the Elkin Heritage Center, located at 257 Standard Street, Elkin, NC. A meal will be served.

Friends, volunteers, and members of the Scouting community are invited to attend and celebrate Kevin’s remarkable career and lasting impact on Scouting. Those attending can RSVP using the link: https://shorturl.at/bDRDb

❗️🔥❗️Spring into Scouting Attendees: Please note that North Carolina is currently under a statewide fire ban, which will impact this weekend’s event. Open-flame fires and the use of charcoal for cooking are not permitted. All cooking should be done using gas or electric stoves. Gas fire pits are allowed.

We understand this may take away from part of the traditional camping experience, but protecting our camp and the surrounding area is our top priority. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
