WHEREAS, Lauren Harpe of Mont Belvieu has won many fans |
|
|
through her appearance on the popular reality TV program Survivor; |
|
|
and |
|
|
WHEREAS, A long-running series, Survivor is now in its 44th |
|
|
season, which began on March 1, 2023, with a cast of 18 competitors |
|
|
for the title of "Sole Survivor"; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Ms. Harpe made it through numerous challenges to |
|
|
become one of just seven remaining players vying to win the |
|
|
$1 million grand prize; moreover, she reached that point in the |
|
|
season as one of only two contestants to have never received a vote |
|
|
against them at one of the show's Tribal Councils; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Originally from Port Arthur, Ms. Harpe is the mother |
|
|
of two young sons, Christopher and Braxton; she interrupted her |
|
|
education when her children were born, but through perseverance, |
|
|
she completed a master's degree; today, she teaches fourth grade in |
|
|
the Barbers Hill Independent School District; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Back home in Texas, many colleagues, students, |
|
|
friends, and family members are rooting for Lauren Harpe in this |
|
|
high-profile competition, and she may indeed take pride in her |
|
|
success thus far; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas |
|
|
Legislature hereby congratulate Lauren Harpe on her participation |
|
|
in Season 44 of television's Survivor and extend to her sincere best |
|
|
wishes for the future; and, be it further |
|
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
|
prepared for Ms. Harpe as an expression of high regard by the Texas |
|
|
House of Representatives. |
