H.R. No. 482

R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, The rank of Eagle Scout is an achievement shared by
only a select few, and the attainment of this significant honor by
Andrew Martinez of Corpus Christi heralds a future bright with
opportunity and promise; and
WHEREAS, A senior at Incarnate Word Academy and a Boy Scout
since 2007, Mr. Martinez has mastered a number of important skills
in his quest to become an Eagle Scout; he has earned 41 merit badges
requiring expertise in such diverse areas as first aid, personal
fitness, and environmental science, and he has gained experience in
leadership and teamwork while undertaking his Eagle Scout project,
which involved installing a wheelchair ramp at his high school gym;
and
WHEREAS, This fine young Texan has ably served his peers in
Boy Scout Troop No. 3 in a number of positions of responsibility,
including as assistant patrol leader, patrol leader, senior patrol
leader, quartermaster, and Order of the Arrow treasurer, and in so
doing, he has exemplified the many positive traits for which Boy
Scouts are renowned; moreover, he is a recipient of the prestigious
Arrow of Light Award, and he has further contributed to the scouting
movement on the national level, having twice attended the National
Boy Scout Jamboree, where he served in a staff position in 2017, and
having participated in the 2015 Philmont Scout Ranch Trek as
assistant crew leader; and
WHEREAS, In fulfilling the rigorous requirements for
attaining the Eagle Scout insignia, Andrew Martinez has
demonstrated an unwavering commitment to the Boy Scouts
organization and its ideals, and the knowledge and confidence he
has acquired along the way will indeed serve him well in the years
to come; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 86th Texas
Legislature hereby congratulate Andrew Martinez 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. Martinez as an expression of high regard by the
Texas House of Representatives.
