WHEREAS, Harriet Davis of Girl Scout Troop No. 6839 has |
|
attained the Girl Scout Gold Award, and this accomplishment truly |
|
merits recognition; and |
|
WHEREAS, To earn this distinction, Ms. Davis successfully |
|
met a series of requirements emphasizing community service, |
|
personal and spiritual growth, positive values, and leadership |
|
skills; as part of that process, she planned and implemented a Gold |
|
Award project that involved installing a little free library on |
|
each of three campuses in the Lubbock Independent School District; |
|
the little free library movement encourages the community to "take |
|
a book, leave a book," making the sites self-sustaining; and |
|
WHEREAS, By fostering self-confidence and by encouraging |
|
young women to explore career opportunities and to become more |
|
socially conscious, the Girl Scout program is helping its |
|
participants achieve their greatest potential as engaged citizens |
|
and leaders; and |
|
WHEREAS, The maturity and dedication that Ms. Davis has |
|
demonstrated in pursuit of her goals truly exemplify the highest |
|
ideals of the Girl Scouts, and she 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 Harriet Davis on her receipt of the |
|
Girl Scout Gold Award and extend to her sincere best wishes for |
|
continued success and happiness; and, be it further |
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
prepared for Ms. Davis as an expression of high regard by the Texas |
|
House of Representatives. |
