Senate Resolution No. 1036

BY: Senator GAUGHRAN

        CONGRATULATING  Douglas Fasciano upon the occasion
        of receiving the distinguished rank of Eagle  Scout,
        the most prestigious of Scouting honors, on June 28,
        2021

  WHEREAS,  Douglas  Fasciano,  through  his  diligence  and  rigorous
efforts, has achieved Scouting's  highest  and  most  prestigious  rank,
Eagle  Scout;  the Eagle Court of Honor ceremony will be held on Monday,
June 28, 2021, at Gloria Dei Lutheran Church in Huntington Station,  New
York; and

  WHEREAS, Douglas Fasciano is a member of Boy Scouts of America Troop
34 at Gloria Dei Lutheran Church; and

  WHEREAS,  America has achieved her greatest heights of glory through
the dedication, determination and tireless efforts  of  the  outstanding
citizens of this Nation; and

  WHEREAS, It is only with the continued diligence and devotion of our
youth, tomorrow's leaders, that America will maintain her glory; and

  WHEREAS,  The Boy Scouts of America and its members are dedicated to
the development of character and leadership in the youth of this Nation;
and

  WHEREAS, The highest achievement of leadership in  Scouting,  earned
by  approximately  five  percent of all Boy Scouts, is the distinguished
rank of Eagle Scout; and

  WHEREAS, This outstanding young man has been  involved  in  Scouting
for  many  years, has lived up to Scouting's ideals and has attained all
the necessary achievements, including completion of a community  service
project, which was successfully planned, developed and executed; and

  WHEREAS, Douglas Fasciano's project required designing, planning and
estimating  costs  for  building  a  8'x 12' utility shed for Gloria Dei
Lutheran Church; he had originally planned to purchase a  shed  kit  but
due to high shipping costs and delays due to COVID-19, it was decided to
build  from  the ground up; the project cost twice as much than what was
estimated but he was  able  to  raise  all  the  funds  and/or  received
donations for the material needed to complete the project; and

  WHEREAS, His dedication to the safety and well-being of the citizens
of   Huntington   Station   is   represented  through  his  project  and
demonstrates his devotion to both community and  commitment  to  others;
and

  WHEREAS,  As  he  moves  forward  in  his  academic  career, Douglas
Fasciano will attend Farmingdale State College in September 2021,  while
continuing the ideals and principles of the Boy Scouts; and

  WHEREAS, Douglas Fasciano's perseverance in rising through the ranks
to Eagle Scout is a strong indication of his ability to master difficult

tasks;  his  accomplishment will enable him to emerge as a leader, fully
equipped to meet the challenges of today's complex society; and

  WHEREAS, This new Eagle Scout is a credit to his family, his school,
his community, his State and his Nation, and no doubt his future will be
filled with accomplishments of equal importance; now, therefore, be it

  RESOLVED,  That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations, in
recognition of the significance  of  this  meritorious  achievement,  to
congratulate  and  honor Douglas Fasciano on achieving the rank of Eagle
Scout; and be it further

  RESOLVED, That a copy of this  Resolution,  suitably  engrossed,  be
transmitted to Douglas Fasciano.
