|
|
WHEREAS, Austin Olivera of Boy Scouts of America Troop |
|
|
No. 999 in Plano 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 small fraction of those who enter the |
|
|
scouting movement; in the course of meeting the rank's demanding |
|
|
criteria, Mr. Olivera earned not only the requisite 21 merit |
|
|
badges, but more than 30 badges total; he also successfully |
|
|
completed an Eagle Scout project of benefit to his community, which |
|
|
included making additions and improvements to a no-kill animal |
|
|
shelter; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, This fine young Texan has demonstrated outstanding |
|
|
leadership ability throughout his scouting career, winning the |
|
|
respect and admiration of the fellow members of his troop as he |
|
|
worked toward the highest rank that the organization offers; a |
|
|
junior at Plano West High School, he plays outside linebacker on the |
|
|
varsity football team and hopes to study sports medicine and play |
|
|
football at Baylor University; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Eagle Scout Olivera's dedication to excellence and |
|
|
his perseverance in the pursuit of his goals have proven him worthy |
|
|
to stand among scouting's elite, and he may indeed reflect with |
|
|
pride on a job well done; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 84th Texas |
|
|
Legislature hereby congratulate Austin Olivera on achieving the |
|
|
rank of Eagle Scout and extend to him sincere best wishes for |
|
|
continued success and happiness; and, be it further |
|
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
|
prepared for Mr. Olivera as an expression of high regard by the |
|
|
Texas House of Representatives. |
