The Penn Mountains Council of
the Boy Scouts of America have
announced that Andrew Yencha
of Troop 232 has won the Dewitt
Wallace-Reader’s Digest Youth
in America Leadership Award.
Andrew first qualified for the
leadership award at the troop
level in his Troop 232, Gate of
Heaven Church, Dallas. Then he
won for his district, the west
side, and the Council, the whole
Wyoming Valley. He is presently
entered in the competition for his
region which represents several
Northeastern states.
Andy won the medal for out-
standing leadership given to his
troop in carrying out a very
ambitious scouting program and
in doing many public service
projects with the troop, among
which wer a conservation project
for the YMCA, an international
education project for College
Misericordia, and several
instructional programs for the
Girl Scouts. Andy was also
selected because of his broad
interests and achievements.
In recognition of his award,
Andy was chosen as the repre-
sentative of area youth to
address the 800 community lead-
ers assembled for the United
Way Campaign dinner.
Andy is an Eagle Scout,
member of the Order of the
Arrow, a winner of the World
Conservation Award and Senior
Patrol Leader of his troop.
Receiving the Eagle Award at
the age of 16, Andy was
presented at a Court of Honor at
College Misericordia on Sept. 30.
The Eagle award, the highest
award in scouting, is attained by
only one out of every 100 boys
who enter scouting.
Andy’s Eagle project was to
set up, train and lead the Guide
Program for the Window on the
World Education Program. Andy
was also responsible for registra-
tion. Under his leadership 35
scouts and college students regis-
tered and guided 300 young
people through three Saturday
programs. Andy was responsible
for the movement of a total of
1,000 young people. He and his
volunteers put in over 400 service
hours in his project. This was a
substantial leadership achieve-
ment and a significant, public
service.
He also holds the World Con-
servation Award, and is a
Arrow. This summer Andy was
one of six young people chosen
from all across the country to be
a member of the Student Conser-
vation Corps to work with the
National Park Service at Lassen
Volcano National Park in Califor-
nia.
As Senior Patrol Leader of
Troop 232, Andy leads a troop of
30 boys with his Scoutmaster Dr.
Lee Williames.
Dr. Williames feels that,
“Andy is a truly outstanding
young man who risked, cared
and worked enough to earn the
Eagle. He is an example of and
for all area youth.”
Andy is a senior student at
Dallas High School where he
