CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
|
|
|
WHEREAS, Andrew Anderson of Boy Scouts of America Troop |
|
|
No. 498 in Grand Prairie has attained the rank of Eagle Scout, and |
|
|
this accomplishment truly merits special recognition; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, 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. Anderson earned the requisite 21 merit badges and successfully |
|
|
completed an Eagle Scout project involving the design, building, |
|
|
and installation of benches for a community garden at Colin Powell |
|
|
Elementary School; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, The son of proud parents Rodney and Heather |
|
|
Anderson, this fine young Texan has demonstrated outstanding |
|
|
leadership ability throughout his scouting career, winning the |
|
|
respect and admiration of his fellow troop members as he worked |
|
|
toward the highest rank that the organization offers; he has |
|
|
further distinguished himself as a member of the Circle Ten |
|
|
Council; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Eagle Scout Anderson'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 85th Legislature of the State of Texas |
|
|
hereby congratulate Andrew Anderson 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 Eagle Scout Anderson as an expression of high regard by |
|
|
the Texas House of Representatives and Senate. |
