Purpose

Camp Clements Main Gate



Camp Clements is a leadership/team development training facility. In fact, the word camp may be some what of a misnomer. Camp Clements is not a makeshift, temporary and/or vacation facility indicative of a ‘camp.’ Camp Clements is a modern, permanent leadership facility for Tennessee vocational students and teachers. The purposes of the facility are very specific and the student groups meet to achieve very worthwhile goals:

  • Development of competent local and state officers of Vocational Student Organizations
  • Development of leadership/team skills in the individual through: officer’s classes, public speaking classes and demonstrations, extemporaneous speaking contests, panel discussions, ceremonies, demonstrations, etc.
  • Promotion of the attitude of cooperation
  • Development of a patriotic attitude in the individual
  • Encouragement of improvement in scholarship and creation of the desire for advanced knowledge
  • Development of character in the individual
  • Promotion of the attitude that good citizenship is a valuable trait in the individual
