R E S O L U T I O N
         WHEREAS, The Boy Scouts of America is celebrating its 100th
  anniversary on February 8, 2010; and
         WHEREAS, Since its incorporation on that day in 1910, BSA has
  sought to provide an educational program for boys and young men to
  build character, to train in the responsibilities of participating
  citizenship, and to develop personal fitness; and
         WHEREAS, The organization's illustrious history of service
  includes selling Liberty Loan bonds and war savings stamps during
  World War I, collecting food and supplies for the needy during the
  Great Depression, and planting victory gardens and assisting the
  American Red Cross during World War II; more recently, scouts have
  participated in conservation efforts as part of Project SOAR and
  worked to fight hunger, provide shelter, and teach the habits of
  healthy living as part of the Good Turn for America initiative; and
         WHEREAS, In addition to Boy Scouting, BSA has expanded to
  offer such programs as Tiger Cubs, Cub Scouts, Webelos Scouts,
  Varsity Scouting, and Venturing; moreover, through Scoutreach, BSA
  works to ensure that scouting is accessible to both urban and rural
  youth; and
         WHEREAS, The Boy Scouts program unites Americans from all
  walks of life; from conservation to character building, BSA's 100th
  anniversary commemorates the highest scouting ideals of helping
  others and making communities stronger; now, therefore, be it
         RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 81st Texas
  Legislature hereby honor Boy Scouts of America on the occasion of
  its centennial and extend to all those associated with this
  exemplary organization sincere best wishes for continued success;
  and, be it further
         RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
  prepared for the BSA as an expression of high regard by the Texas
  House of Representatives.
