H.R. No. 187

R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Matthew Lane Ragain of Boy Scouts of America Troop
No. 157 in Lubbock 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. Ragain earned the requisite 21 merit badges; he also
successfully completed an Eagle Scout project by designing and
building garden beds at Bayless Elementary School for use in
classroom learning and the garden club; and
WHEREAS, The son of Mike and Melanie Ragain, 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; and
WHEREAS, Eagle Scout Ragain'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 85th Texas
Legislature hereby congratulate Matthew Lane Ragain 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. Ragain as an expression of high regard by the Texas
House of Representatives.
