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.
