|
|
||
| WHEREAS, Shelby Brainard of Boy Scouts of America Troop | ||
| No. 155 in Georgetown 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. Brainard earned the requisite 21 merit badges and successfully | ||
| completed an Eagle Scout project, which involved the rejuvenation | ||
| of two play areas at First Presbyterian Church of Georgetown; and | ||
| WHEREAS, This fine young Texan has demonstrated outstanding | ||
| leadership ability throughout his scouting career, serving twice as | ||
| patrol leader and winning the respect and admiration of his fellow | ||
| troop members as he worked toward the highest rank that the | ||
| organization offers; and | ||
| WHEREAS, A 2017 graduate of East View High School, | ||
| Mr. Brainard was captain of the debate team and a member of the | ||
| National Honor Society; he has further distinguished himself as a | ||
| three-year participant in the Williamson County Teen Court, and he | ||
| gained valuable experience as a page in the United States Senate; he | ||
| plans to attend Princeton University in the fall; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Eagle Scout Brainard'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, 1st Called Session, hereby congratulate Shelby | ||
| Brainard 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 Brainard as an expression of high regard by | ||
| the Texas House of Representatives. | ||
