|
WHEREAS, Austin Clark of Boy Scouts of America Troop No. 13 |
|
|
in Houston 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. Clark earned 23 merit badges, including those |
|
|
requiring expertise in such diverse areas as oceanography, |
|
|
computers, and space exploration; for his Eagle Scout project, he |
|
|
built a walkway to an outdoor chapel at South Main Baptist Church, |
|
|
where his grandparents were married; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, The son of John and Beth Clark, 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; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Eagle Scout Clark'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 Clark on achieving the rank |
|
|
of Eagle Scout and extend to him sincere best wishes for continued |
|
|
success; and, be it further |
|
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
|
prepared for Mr. Clark as an expression of high regard by the Texas |
|
|
House of Representatives. |
