|
|
WHEREAS, Alexander Kurian Seshan of Scouts BSA Troop No. 280 |
|
in Dripping Springs 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. Seshan earned the requisite 21 merit badges, including those |
|
requiring expertise in such diverse areas as space exploration, |
|
emergency preparedness, and soil and water conservation; moreover, |
|
he has gained experience in leadership and teamwork while |
|
undertaking his Eagle Scout project, which involved constructing a |
|
12-foot tower at Dripping Springs Ranch Park that serves as a nest |
|
for chimney swifts, a bird species with a dwindling population; and |
|
WHEREAS, The son of Natarajan and Rachel Seshan, 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 member of the Order of the Arrow, he |
|
has also served his troop as quartermaster, den chief, troop guide, |
|
and senior patrol leader; and |
|
WHEREAS, Eagle Scout Seshan'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 88th Texas |
|
Legislature hereby congratulate Alexander Kurian Seshan 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. Seshan as an expression of high regard by the Texas |
|
House of Representatives. |
