SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 166

	WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas joins the 
citizens of Austin in congratulating Matthew Whitten Kenny of
Boy Scout Troop 399, who recently achieved the rank of
Eagle Scout; and

	WHEREAS, This outstanding young man has brought honor to 
himself, his family, his troop, his community, and his state in 
earning the coveted Eagle Badge; and

	WHEREAS, Matthew completed a service project that required 
him to exercise his leadership abilities and at the same time 
benefit his community; he orchestrated building a large 
structure to house and secure underwater plants at the Austin 
Nature Center; and

	WHEREAS, Few are privileged to be named among the ranks
of the elite corps of Eagle Scouts; only two out of every
100 Boy Scouts earn this distinguished honor; and

	WHEREAS, Following the principles of the Scout oath and 
promise, Matthew advanced from Tenderfoot, Second, First, Star, 
and Life classes to Eagle Scout; he is truly an exemplary citizen 
of the State of Texas; now, therefore, be it

	RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas,
79th Legislature, hereby congratulate Matthew Whitten Kenny on 
attaining the rank of Eagle Scout and commend him on this great 
achievement; and, be it further

	RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for 
Eagle Scout Kenny as an expression of esteem from the 
Texas Senate.
