OLD LINE STATE HERALD P a g e | 3 J u n e 2 0 1 9 Officers/Chairmen Reports Americanism by Jim Engler The national reports on activity (sometimes referred to as the Americanism Score Sheets) have all been submitted to the national SAR and will be considered in their annual contest and winners will be reported out at the National Congress this July. I want to extend my thanks to all who helps in preparing these reports. More to the point, I want to thank all of YOU, my Compatriots, who through your involvement at the chapter, state, district, and national levels contributed to the levels of activity we have seen from Maryland SAR. Keep up the great work! On that score, we are coming into the spring time, with summer not that far away, so what are YOU and your chapter doing in activities that foster Americanism through the mission of SAR? Here are some questions to ask yourself: • Is my chapter participating in the Americanism Poster and Brochure Contests? • Is my chapter doing anything for Memorial Day? • Is my chapter awarding Outstanding Citizenship Pins to graduating High School Seniors? • Is my chapter awarding ROTC/JROTC Medals? • Is my chapter doing anything for Flag Day? • Is my chapter doing anything for Independence Day? Odds are, if your chapter isn’t doing something, there is one near you that is.
