WHEREAS, Jackie Edwards Jr. of Scouts BSA Troop No. 215 in |
|
|
Lockhart 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. Edwards earned the requisite 21 merit badges and successfully |
|
|
completed an Eagle Scout project that involved planning and |
|
|
building an outdoor learning area at the Carver Early Education |
|
|
Center; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, A senior at Lockhart High School, 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 Edwards'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 Jackie Edwards Jr. 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. Edwards as an expression of high regard by the |
|
|
Texas House of Representatives. |
