A very special night for our LSNB family. 💙
At the Rio Grande Council, Scouting America’s 40th Annual Distinguished Citizen Award Dinner, our President, S. David Deanda, Jr., was honored with the 2026 Distinguished Citizen Award, a recognition given to leaders who reflect the values of good citizenship, character, service, and dedication to others.
We are incredibly proud of Mr. Deanda and grateful for the example he continues to set through his leadership, integrity, and commitment to serving South Texas.
We also congratulate the Rio Grande Council on 40 years of this meaningful recognition and on its continued work helping young people across the Valley build character, leadership, and a strong sense of service.
It was an honor to celebrate both a leader who means so much to LSNB and an organization doing important work for the next generation.
