|
|
|
WHEREAS, Brady Jones of Boy Scouts of America Troop No. 451 |
|
|
in Lewisville 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. Jones earned the requisite 21 merit badges and successfully |
|
|
completed an ambitious Eagle Scout project, which involved |
|
|
constructing a SWAT training conex box for the Lewisville Police |
|
|
Department; in addition to helping weld, paint, and otherwise build |
|
|
the structure, he and his troop had to raise approximately $3,000 to |
|
|
cover the cost of the materials; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, The son of Shannon 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; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, His dedication to excellence and perseverance in the |
|
|
pursuit of his goals have proven Eagle Scout Jones 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 Brady Jones 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 Jones as an expression of high regard by |
|
|
the Texas House of Representatives. |
