"Outside of the church organizations the first clubs formed in Damascus were for young people. About 1915, or soon after, Boy Scouts and Camp Fire Girls were organized."

"The Citizen's Club in Damascus is probably the longest-lived independent men's club in the United States, Organized in 1926, it has been active in promoting community projects for 24 years and has never affiliated with a national organization."
