Scouts losing district exec

NORWICH – The district executive position for the Chenango County Boy Scout council is once again open as current leader Joe Grabowski prepares to move back to Pennsylvania.

“I feel bad about leaving. The district has come so far in just the 15 months I’ve been here,” said Grabowski, 24. “It has a lot of opportunity to grow and I’m sure with the current volunteers, it will.”

The Chenango District is just one of four in the Baden-Powell Council, and encompasses Chenango County, Whitney Point, Chenango Bridge, Kattelville and Harpursville. The district offices are located in Norwich, the “hub” of Boy Scout activity in the area.

“I didn’t really know that I would have to live within ten miles of Norwich when I took the job,” said Grabowski. “I grew up in Pennsylvania and Binghamton and had never really traversed Chenango County.”

Grabowski stated that although he enjoyed being in the area since he took the job in October of 2010, he was more comfortable in Pennsylvania, which was a big part of his decision to return.
