The Elf on the Shelf® Adventure - Nov 23 thru Jan 6

Knoxville will once again host the country’s only community-wide The Elf on the Shelf® scavenger hunt.

Scout Elves will land in Knoxville to begin the scavenger hunt on Friday, November 23. Children of all ages are invited to pick up a North Pole Pass at any of the participating businesses to help guide them through the adventure. Children and children at heart will find fun, treats, and prizes along the way. As a special treat, Santa has granted permission for these Knoxville Scout Elves to remain in Knoxville until Sunday, January 6.
