  Mr. TANCREDO. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor Thomas L. Wyscaver 
for his service and leadership in the Boy Scouts of America.
  Thomas has dedicated his time and his heart to the Denver Area 
Council of the Boy Scouts of America. The Council serves over 55,000 
youth with the assistance and mentorship of over 11,000 adult 
volunteers. Thomas is a standout among equals in his commitment to 
instill the values of service and patriotism in the young men of our 
nation.
  Due to his outstanding and distinguished service to the Denver Area 
Council, Thomas is being awarded the Silver Beaver Award, a recognition 
given to Scouting's volunteers for their exemplary service and 
character. It is the organization's highest honor. Thomas has been able 
to support the Denver Council in all 10 counties that it serves and has 
helped countless young men from Cub Scouting to Venturing programs.
  It is an honor for me to recognize Thomas and highlight his 
dedication to the youth of our nation. The Centennial State is glad to 
call him our own.
