                      Wednesday, January 14, 2015

  Mr. FITZPATRICK. Mr. Speaker, I rise before you today to recognize 
Bill Mischke, a dedicated Scouter, mentor to countless youth and one of 
my first merit badge counselors. As the director for Camp Ockanickon, 
Bill ensured each Boy Scout troop had a fulfilling experience at the 
camp fires, the mess hall was well stocked and each counselor was 
prepared for the rigors the summer would bring. Additionally, he 
oversaw the implementation of the GE Betz Science Center, the first 
such center in the United States which provides an opportunity for 
scouts to earn STEM based merit badges. After a successful career with 
the Bucks County Council, Bill has moved on to spend more time with his 
family but has continued to impact the lives of our future leaders as 
the Director of Program Experience with the DelMarVa Council. I want to 
congratulate him on a successful life committed to the tenants of the 
Scout Oath and Law and wish him happiness in all his future endeavors. 
I yield back.
