Join In the Celebration

Get ready for an epic journey into history! To mark Daniel Boone and his Axemen’s 250th anniversary carving the path to Kentucky, we’re following in their historic footsteps. Starting from Kingsport, TN, teams of explorers will hike roughly 10 miles daily, symbolically passing an ax along the way to Fort Boonesborough, KY, just a tad southeast of Lexington. Along the 250-mile route, you can also take part in special events, honoring the pioneers of westward expansion and those who helped shape our nation. It’s a journey into our past, and you’re invited!
