SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 124

	WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas joins the 
citizens of DeSoto in congratulating Chase Henderson of Boy Scout 
Troop 141, who recently attained the rank of Eagle Scout, a rank 
achieved by only two out of every 100 boys in the program; and
	WHEREAS, This fine young man displayed outstanding 
leadership through the planning and execution of a service 
project which has benefited his community; and

his neighborhood; for his project, he put caution stickers on the 
storm drains and information tags on the doors of people's homes 
explaining the risks; and

Second, First, Star, and Life classes before reaching the rank 
of Eagle Scout by following the principles of the Scout oath and 
promise; he has earned 21 merit badges, and he is a member of the 
Order of the Arrow; and
	WHEREAS, By becoming an Eagle Scout, this personable young 
man has brought great distinction to himself, his family, his 
troop, his community, and his state; and
	WHEREAS, Chase is an exceptional representative of the 
State of Texas and a sterling example to all who have the good 
fortune to know him; now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 
78th Legislature, hereby commend Chase Henderson on earning 
the rank of Eagle Scout and congratulate him on his great 
achievement; and, be it further
