Ruppersberger Honors Maryland Boy Scouts For Commitment to Their Communities
   
     

(Baltimore, MD)- Congressman C.A. Dutch Ruppersberger (D-Maryland 2nd) honored 150 Boy Scouts from Central Maryland at Fort McHenry on Saturday, October 25, 2008, for their commitment to their communities.  The Boy Scouts received the Dutch Ruppersberger Super Recruiter Award for encouraging other children in their neighborhoods to join the Boy Scouts and learn important skills. 

"I was a Boy Scout when I was young. It was such a great experience and taught me the importance of community service, teamwork, and moral values. It created a great foundation that I still rely on today. It is an honor to encourage our future leaders to join the Boy Scouts," said Congressman C.A. Dutch Ruppersberger.

Since the start of the 2008 school year, the recruitment drive has successfully recruited over 2,500 children to join Scouting programs.  For nearly a century, the Boy Scouts of America has provided quality programs which instill character, values, citizenship, and leadership in youth.  Forty thousand youth participate in the Boy Scouts throughout Central Maryland.
