This bill is a legislative commemoration recognizing Scouting America Day at the Capitol and celebrating the organization's one hundred sixteen years of service to American youth. Scouting America, formerly known as the Boy Scouts of America, was established in 1910 and has been chartered by Congress to prepare young people for impactful lives through character development, citizenship, and leadership. The organization has provided a safe and engaging environment for youth to learn and grow, positively affecting over one hundred thirty million young individuals by promoting personal growth, responsibility, and community service.

The commemoration highlights Scouting America's ongoing commitment to empowering boys, girls, and families in South Dakota, helping them reach their full potential and become responsible citizens. The bill expresses gratitude for Scouting America's contributions to both South Dakota and the United States over its long history.
