H.R. No. 294
 
 
 
R E S O L U T I O N
         WHEREAS, Ethan Cole Rascoe of Scouts BSA Troop No. 9 in
  Lumberton 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. Rascoe earned 26 merit badges and successfully completed an
  Eagle Scout project that involved building a stone fire ring at the
  group campsite at Village Creek State Park in Lumberton; the
  project was designed in conjunction with the American Legion Post
  No. 72 as a location to hold flag retirement ceremonies; and
         WHEREAS, 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; a 2020
  graduate of Lumberton High School, he played the trumpet and was a
  section leader in the Lumberton Mighty Raider Band; he is currently
  enrolled at Lamar Institute of Technology, where he is working
  toward his associate degree in welding; and
         WHEREAS, Eagle Scout Rascoe'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 87th Texas
  Legislature hereby congratulate Ethan Cole Rascoe 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 Rascoe as an expression of high regard by
  the Texas House of Representatives.
