|
|
Austin are celebrating the 100th anniversary of their troop's |
|
|
founding in 2017; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Troop No. 9 was established by Scoutmaster |
|
|
J. J. Mason in May 1917, and over the years, its chartering |
|
|
organizations have included the First Southern Presbyterian |
|
|
Church, the Austin State School, and Our Lady of Guadalupe Church; |
|
|
in 1940, the group secured sponsorship from the Bryker Woods |

the present day; and |

|
WHEREAS, Since its inception, Troop No. 9 has helped its |
|
|
members develop such core values as citizenship, teamwork, and |
|
|
community service while learning myriad useful skills, including |
|
|
first aid, rowing, and knot tying; its scouts have also experienced |
|
|
adventure and camaraderie through camping trips, hiking, canoeing, |
|
|
cave exploration, and an annual stay at Lost Pines Boy Scout Camp; |
|
|
and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Over the past century, Boy Scout Troop No. 9 has |
|
|
equipped countless young Texans with the knowledge and confidence |
|
|
to face the challenges and opportunities of adulthood, and it is |
|
|
indeed a pleasure to join in recognizing this momentous milestone |
|
|
in the group's rich history; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 85th Texas |
|
|
Legislature, 1st Called Session, hereby commemorate the 100th |
|
|
anniversary of Boy Scout Troop No. 9 in Austin and extend to all |
|
|
those associated with the troop sincere best wishes for a |
|
|
meaningful and memorable celebration; and, be it further |
|
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
|
prepared for Troop No. 9 as an expression of high regard by the |
|
|
Texas House of Representatives. |
