||
| WHEREAS, Joseph Bennett of Boy Scouts of America Troop | ||
| No. 229 in Harker Heights has attained the rank of Eagle Scout, and | ||
| this accomplishment truly merits special recognition; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Receiving 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. Bennett earned the requisite 21 merit badges and | ||
| successfully completed an Eagle Scout project of benefit to his | ||
| community, which included constructing a new practice backstop at | ||
| the tennis courts of Harker Heights High School; and | ||
| WHEREAS, This fine young Texan has demonstrated outstanding | ||
| leadership ability throughout his scouting career, winning the | ||
| respect and admiration of the fellow members of his troop as he | ||
| worked toward the highest rank that the organization offers; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Eagle Scout Bennett'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 84th Texas | ||
| Legislature hereby congratulate Joseph Bennett 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 Eagle Scout Bennett as an expression of high regard by | ||
| the Texas House of Representatives. | ||
