Lock-in!

A Boy and his Cookie

It's winter, the kids need to run around, parents need a little quiet time, and Scout leaders, we'll, sometimes they're just not entirely sane - all of which spells "LOCK IN!"

The Troop along with local Webelos and assorted friends converged on Aspen Ridge and attacked chips, pop, pizza, popcorn, and eventually donuts with gusto.

In the end, though, the food, the play, and the late hour wiped out a few. One young fellow (right) fell asleep standing up. But many of the boys made it the whole night - and pitched in with cleanup ta boot.

And I don't think the leaders won a single game of dodgeball no matter how many times we changed the rules.
