|
WHEREAS, Collin Clark of Boy Scouts of America Troop No. 668 |
|
has attained the rank of Eagle Scout, and this accomplishment truly |
|
merits special recognition; and |
|
WHEREAS, Receiving the Eagle Scout badge is a significant |
|
honor, one bestowed on only a small fraction of those who enter the |
|
scouting movement; in the course of meeting the rank's demanding |
|
criteria, Mr. Clark earned the requisite 21 merit badges and |
|
successfully completed an Eagle Scout project in which he repaired, |
|
replaced, and repainted playground equipment in the community of |
|
Myra; and |
|
WHEREAS, The son of Jason and Brenda Clark, this fine young |
|
Texan is the seventh member of his family to rise to the rank of |
|
Eagle Scout; Mr. Clark 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, A 2016 graduate of Lindsay High School, Mr. Clark |
|
plans to continue his education at North Central Texas College and |
|
at Stephen F. Austin State University; he hopes to earn a degree in |
|
forestry and eventually become a park ranger; and |
|
WHEREAS, Eagle Scout Clark'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 Collin Clark 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. Clark as an expression of high regard by the Texas |
|
House of Representatives. |
