R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Victor A. Hernandez of Boy Scouts of America Troop
707 in Fort Worth has attained the rank of Eagle Scout, and this
accomplishment truly merits special recognition; and
WHEREAS, Receiving the Eagle Scout badge is a significant
honor, bestowed on only a fraction of those who enter the scouting
movement; in the course of meeting the rank's demanding criteria,
Mr. Hernandez earned the requisite 21 merit badges, including those
requiring expertise in such diverse areas as animal science,
sculpture, and wilderness survival; moreover, he successfully
completed an Eagle Scout project that involved coordinating with
the Fort Worth Police Department Crime Prevention Unit in the
I-dent-a-kid Program; serving 50 families at a Fort Worth Parks
community center, Mr. Hernandez led 10 fellow scouts to fill out
information sheets, fingerprint and photograph each child, and
laminate identification cards for the participants; and
WHEREAS, This fine young Texan has demonstrated outstanding
leadership ability throughout his scouting career; he has served
his fellow scouts in the positions of senior patrol leader,
assistant senior patrol leader, troop scribe, patrol leader, and
assistant patrol leader, winning their respect and admiration as he
worked toward the highest rank that scouting offers; and
WHEREAS, The dedication to excellence and perseverance in the
pursuit of his goals demonstrated by Eagle Scout Hernandez have
proven him worthy to stand among scouting's elite, and it is most
appropriate that he be honored at this time; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 79th Texas
Legislature hereby congratulate Victor A. Hernandez on becoming an
Eagle Scout and extend to him sincere best wishes for the future;
and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for Eagle Scout Hernandez as an expression of high regard
by the Texas House of Representatives.
