|
WHEREAS, Matthew Lane Ragain of Boy Scouts of America Troop |
|
|
No. 157 in Lubbock 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. Ragain earned the requisite 21 merit badges; he also |
|
|
successfully completed an Eagle Scout project by designing and |
|
|
building garden beds at Bayless Elementary School for use in |
|
|
classroom learning and the garden club; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, The son of Mike and Melanie Ragain, 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; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Eagle Scout Ragain'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 85th Texas |
|
|
Legislature hereby congratulate Matthew Lane Ragain 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. Ragain as an expression of high regard by the Texas |
|
|
House of Representatives. |
