| H.R. No. 700 | ||
|
|
||
| WHEREAS, Brady Jones of Boy Scouts of America Troop No. 451 | ||
| in Lewisville 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. Jones earned the requisite 21 merit badges and successfully | ||
| completed an ambitious Eagle Scout project, which involved | ||
| constructing a SWAT training conex box for the Lewisville Police | ||
| Department; in addition to helping weld, paint, and otherwise build | ||
| the structure, he and his troop had to raise approximately $3,000 to | ||
| cover the cost of the materials; and | ||
| WHEREAS, The son of Shannon Anderson, 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, His dedication to excellence and perseverance in the | ||
| pursuit of his goals have proven Eagle Scout Jones 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 Brady Jones 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 Jones as an expression of high regard by | ||
| the Texas House of Representatives. | ||
