Norwich Boy Scout Troop 63 hosts overnight Lock-in
NORWICH – Norwich’s Boy Scout Troop 63 hosted its annual overnight Lock-In on March 10, inviting several other Chenango County troops to join its members for a night of fun, food and friendly competition.
More than 100 scouts attended the event, said Troop 63 Scoutmaster Daniel Pfeifer.
Life Scout Lucas Reynold, of Sherburne Troop 66, said it was a great chance for scouts to mingle, have fun and “just be respectable scouts,” not to mention stay up all night. This year’s event, he added, was “perhaps the greatest so far,” as numerous activities were scheduled, including basketball shoot-outs, racquetball games and soccer and dodge ball tournaments.
“Teams of scouts competed against each other ... not really caring whether they won or lost because in the end, all they wanted was a good time,” said Reynold. “Not a frown was to be found.”
