Greater Yosemite Council Volunteers Lead Delegation in Annual Report to the Nation

Roger and Delsie Schrimp escorted eight Scouts during a March 1-5 visit to Washington DC and presented BSA’s annual Report to the Nation. Roger and Delsie both serve on the Council’s Executive Board. In 2006 Roger received the Silver Buffalo Award, BSA’s highest honor for service to youth. He has been involved in Scouting since joining in 1948 and is an Eagle Scout.

The Boy Scouts of America’s annual Report to the Nation highlights the achievements of our program. A representative contingent of youth delegates is chosen annually to present the report to the Speaker of the House as required by our charter. Other government officials that traditionally receive the report include the President of the United States, and congressmen from both houses.

This year’s delegation visited with elected and appointed dignitaries, and toured the White House, Central Intelligence Agency, U.S. Supreme Court, U.S. Secret Service, Arlington National Cemetery, Goddard Space Flight Center and the Pentagon.
