Youth-based hiking club to hold informational meeting

NORWICH – Young men and women between 14 and 20 are invited to an informational meeting about a new, youth-based hiking club sponsored by the Finger Lakes Trail Bullthistle Hiking Club in conjunction with Boy Scout Troop 62.

Learn more about the Venturing Scout Group from 2 to 3 p.m. on Jan. 17 at the Norwich Family YMCA.

“We were approached to sponsor this and we, of course, agreed,” said Bullthistle President and hiking enthusiast Don Windsor. “Our goal is to get other people hiking, of all ages.”

The Venturers will be self-led by members with guidance from adults involved with both the Boy Scouts and the Bullthistle Hiking Club, spending time exploring the many trails criss-crossing Chenango County, said Windsor. The Bullthistle hikers will also attempt to incorporate the teens in their weekly Sunday hikes.
