TO CONGRATULATE STEVEN M. GUYON-MARTIN OF HORRY COUNTY FOR HIS REMARKABLE ACCOMPLISHMENTS IN THE BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA AND TO SALUTE HIM UPON HIS ACHIEVING THE CELEBRATED RANK OF EAGLE SCOUT, THE HIGHEST AWARD IN SCOUTING.
Whereas, recently, Steven M. Guyon-Martin of Troop 819 of the Pee Dee Council successfully passed his Eagle Scout Board of Review and thus completed the requirements for the rank of Eagle Scout; and
Whereas, the son of Steve Martin and Renae Guyon, this St. James High School senior has participated in ROTC, the ROTC basketball team, and junior varsity and varsity football. Following graduation, he plans to serve our country in the military; and
Whereas, during his years in Scouting, Steven has been named to the Order of the Arrow (Scouting's national honor society) and has served as senior patrol leader, assistant senior patrol leader, patrol leader, and assistant patrol leader; and
Whereas, Steven officially will receive the rank of Eagle Scout on Monday, March 25, 2019; and
Whereas, for his Eagle project, Steven refurbished and painted all forty-eight picnic benches for St. Michael's Church and School, located in Garden City; and
Whereas, to earn the rank of Eagle Scout, a Boy Scout must demonstrate that he lives by the principles of the Scout Oath and Law in his daily life; he must plan, develop, and give leadership to others in a service project helpful to any religious institution, any school, or his community; and he must earn a total of twenty-one merit badges, actively serve in a position of responsibility within his troop for six months, take part in a Scoutmaster conference, and complete his Eagle Scout Board of Review; and
Whereas, only about five percent of Boy Scouts complete these rigorous requirements to achieve the prestigious rank of Eagle Scout; and
Whereas, the House is grateful for the legacy of Scouting in America and takes great pride in acknowledging the achievements of young South Carolinians like Steven M. Guyon-Martin who selflessly give of their time, talents, and energy to enrich their local communities and our State. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
