                                  _____
                                 

                          HON. BRUCE WESTERMAN

                              of arkansas

                    in the house of representatives

                       Tuesday, January 28, 2020

  Mr. WESTERMAN. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize Mr. Ken 
Armstrong for his years of dedicated service to the Boy Scouts of 
America, specifically Troop ONE in Hot Springs, Arkansas.
  First Presbyterian Church of Hot Springs chartered Troop ONE in 1923, 
making it the oldest continuously chartered chapter in the State of 
Arkansas. Mr. Armstrong's own career with Troop ONE began in 1994 and 
continued for another 25 years after he was named Scoutmaster for the 
troop in 1998. He will be retiring on February 9, 2020 after 21 years 
as the Scoutmaster for Troop ONE.
  With more than 40 years of service as both a youth scout and as a 
Scoutmaster in Arkansas and Texas, Mr. Armstrong was also awarded the 
Silver Beaver Award last year in recognition of his lifelong service in 
leadership. He remains a respected mentor and resource to countless 
young people in the Fourth District.
  I'd like to thank Mr. Armstrong for his years of dedicated service 
and for his commitment to ensuring a brighter future for young people 
of the Fourth District of Arkansas.
