Page 3 Prince George’s District Boy Scouts of America On February 8, 2010 the Boy Scouts of America celebrated their Centennial. The Congress chartered this fine organization on February 8, 1910. The Marlborough Day shirt this year for the Marlborough Day Parade has the Boy National Memorial, which is located near in Washington, D.C. The movement was started by a retired British General Lord Robert Stephenson Smyth Baden Powell (BP) based on a book he had written and published in 1908, “.” BP had based his book on his military experience (mainly in Africa) and he published a number of other books prior to writing “Scouting for boys” in England. These books had become best sellers in England and particularly with young boys. BP then began to experiment with the idea of scouting by forming a training session (experiment) and the movement began.

Scouting came to the United States of America via William D. Boyce in 1909. Boyce was lost in a pea soup thick London Fog when a young man offered to assist him in finding his way. Boyce offered to pay the young man for his service. The young man explained that he was a “Scout” and could not take payment for a “good turn done daily”. Boyce later met with BP and brought the movement to the United States. A statue was later erected in , in London, England to commend the “.”

The day Prince Georges District covers the entire County. There are, as of today, 52 Packs, 51 Boy Scout Troops, 3 Boy Scout Teams, 9 Crews, and 1 Ship in the Prince Georges District. Ex- cept for three Professional Scouters all of the Scouts and Scouters in the District are volunteers.

There are numerous Centennial events occurring in this area and across the Nation to celebrate the event. Please check out the National website ( www.scouting.org ) and the National Capital Area Council website ( www.scouting- ncac.org ) for further information.

It was founded by Juliette Gordon Low in 1912 and is based on the Scouting principles developed by Robert Baden-Powell. GSUSA uses the to build self-esteem and to teach values such as honesty, fairness, courage, compassion, character, sisterhood, confidence, and citizenship through activities including camping, community service, learning first aid, and earning numerous badges by acquiring other practical skills. Girl Scouts' achievements are recognized through rank advancement and by various special awards. The Gold Award is the highest honor earned.

Boy Scout Memorial

The bronze statue picture on page 1 of this program consists of three figures. The Boy Scout represents the aspirations of all , present, and future Scouts throughout the world. The male figure exemplifies physical, mental, and moral fitness, love of country, good citizenship, loyalty, honor, and courage. He carries a helmet, a symbol of masculine attire. The female figure sym- bolizes enlightenment with the love of God and fellow man, justice, freedom, and democracy. She holds the eternal flame of God's Holy Spirit

The memorial to the Boy Scouts of America stands on the site of the first Boy Scout in 1937. It is one of the few me- morials in Washington, D.C. commemorating a living cause. The funds to build this memorial were raised by Scout units throughout the United States, and each donor signed one of several scrolls that were placed in the pedestal of the statue. The memorial was unveiled in a ceremony on November 7, 1964. The statue was accepted for the country by Associate Supreme Court Justice Tom Clark, who noted that the day marked his fiftieth anniversary as an Eagle Scout.

Biographies

Bill Milligan —Bill Milligan’s involvement in the Marlborough Day Festival began in the mid-1990s. Before assuming the role of this year’s Marlborough Day Festival Chairman, Bill served as the Festival Planning secretary and the Traffic and Safety Committee lead. He left the area to serve in the Navy during the Vietnam War. He returned to the area and worked until he retired. Now that Bill has retired, he devotes more of his time to various public safety organizations in the Prince George’s County area. You might spot Bill volunteering his services in the Prince George’s Sheriff’s Office, the Prince George’s County Police Office or the Maryland State Police Office. In addition to volunteering in various public safety organizations, Bill is ac- tive in the American Legions and he serves on the Prince George’s County Citizen Corps Council. Bill can be found HAMming with other Amateur Radio Emergency Services volunteers supporting the Prince George’s County Office of Emer- gency Management.

Ayla West opens the Marlborough Day Festival with the Nation Anthem. Ayla West is one of the definitive female soul singers of the new era. She began her publicly at the tender age of six in her grandmother’s church choir. Ayla expanded her singing to include R&B, the innovation of jazz, and the precision of pop. After she hit her artistic and commercial stride in 2001, she moved toward the pop mainstream. The “Voice of An Angel” has been heard in Hong Kong, China, and Jakarta. Ayla’s versatility and angelic voice has opened for artists such as the Chi-Lites, Martha Reeves, Naomi Campbell, Taylor Dane, Vicki Winnans, and Twinkie Clarke, and De La Soul. She has performed along with Michael Manson, Tom Brown and many others, at one of the President Obama’s Pre-Inauguration ceremonies. Ayla made her first national televised appearance on Showtime at the Apollo . The Voice of an Angel is a multi-faceted upcoming star and is notable for her vocal range, versatility and stage presence. She is currently working on her R&B debut album, “The 5th Element,” that will be released in 2011. Venues: Lin- coln Theater, Verizon Center, MCI Center, Constitution Hall, Kodak Theater, and Showplace Arena
