|

|
recognize Boy Scout Troop 399 of Austin, which is honoring 16 of |
|
its members as Eagle Scouts at an Eagle Court of Honor on May 17, |
|
2009; and |
|
WHEREAS, Few are privileged to be named among the elite |
|
corps of Eagle Scouts; only five out of every 100 Boy Scouts earn |
|
this distinguished honor; and |
|
WHEREAS, Chartered by Tarrytown United Methodist Church, |
|
Troop 399 is fortunate to have so many young men achieve this |
|
signal honor, given its rigorous standards and the demands of |
|
time and dedication needed to fulfill its requirements; and |
|
WHEREAS, These outstanding young Scouts have followed the |
|
principles of the Scout oath and promise and advanced from |
|
Tenderfoot, Second, First, Star, and Life classes to become Eagle |
|
Scouts; they have further completed a service project that |
|
required them to exercise their leadership abilities and at the |
|
same time benefit their community; and |
|
WHEREAS, The exemplary young men who have realized this |
|
cherished goal are Andrew W. Wiewel, James R. Thompson III, |
|
Bennett A. Nadeau, Peter J. Teneriello, Stephen A. King, Eli V. |
|
Mendoza, Andrew T. Marshall, Wilson T. Bauer, Benjamin K. Lowry, |
|
Jonathan O. Box, Roy G. Reyna, Samuel M. Faries, Travis B. Owens, |
|
Andrew M. Klitch, Santiago R. Dietche, and Cornelius J. Donovan |
|
II; and |
|
WHEREAS, These exemplary young men have brought honor to |
|
themselves, their families, their troop, their community, and |
|
their state; now, therefore, be it |
|
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 81st |
|
Legislature, hereby commend Troop 399 and its members who have |
|
demonstrated their talent and commitment by becoming Eagle |
|
Scouts; and, be it further |
|
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for |
|
them as an expression of esteem from the Texas Senate. |
