For his Eagle project, Ruiz incorporated two of his major interests - helping those less fortunate and rifle shooting. His project, "Shoot for Food," was a rifle competition that collected nonperishable foods for the Montgomery Food Pantry. The entrance fee for the competitors was a donated bag of food. More than 23 bags of nonperishable items were collected.

Ruiz is a member of the Minisink Valley Varsity Rifle Team and has participated in the New York State Empire Games for the past three years. He holds the National Rifle Association's distinguished expert rank. He is also an apprentice instructor for the NRA.
