Atlantic Boy Scout Troop Inducts Four New Eagle Scouts


Atlantic Boy Scout Troop 311 inducted four new Eagle Scouts over the weekend at Atlantic United Methodist Church. Ryan Charnock, 18, Sam Broyles, 18, Rob Borowitz, 16, and Frank Borowitz, 18, were inducted in the special ceremony Saturday afternoon.

Many distinguished guests were at the ceremony to speak and present awards. Representing Congressman Glen Nye was Sylvia Parks, who gave letters of commendation to the Eagle Scouts from Congressman Nye. Delegate Lynwood Lewis and Accomack County Supervisor Ron Wolf also gave letters of commendation to the Scouts.

The keynote speaker of the event was former Virginia Secretary of Agriculture Robert Bloxom. In his address, Secretary Bloxom spoke of the determination of the first settlers who landed in Virginia in 1607. Citing their ability to work together as a reason for their survival, Bloxom urged the new Eagle Scouts to do the same and to give back to the community.

The four new Eagle Scouts gave Atlantic Troop 311 a total of 10 Eagle Scouts since 1997 and 21 all time. According to the Boy Scouts of America, less than 3% of Scouts attain the rank of Eagle.
