SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 152
         WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to
  recognize Boy Scout Troop 9 of Austin on the occasion of its 100th
  anniversary, which is being celebrated September 2, 2017; and
 
         WHEREAS, Boy Scout Troop 9 was established in May of 1917;
  it is currently chartered by the Bryker Woods Elementary School
  Parent-Teacher Association; and
 
         WHEREAS, Through the years, the troop has had 62 boys achieve
  the rank of Eagle Scout; countless others have learned first aid,
  citizenship, teamwork, rope tying, canoeing, and other skills; and
 
         WHEREAS, Troop 9 has undertaken many service projects to
  benefit the community, and its members have participated in high
  adventure trips to the famed Philmont Ranch in New Mexico and the
  boundary waters of Canada; an important part of the troop's
  legacy is the Scout Hut at Bryker Woods Elementary School, which
  was constructed in 1955 and continues to serve as a meeting place
  for Scouts and other groups of various kinds; and
 
         WHEREAS, Troop 9 has had a profound influence on the lives
  of young people in Austin for 100 years, and it is truly fitting
  that the troop receive special recognition as it celebrates this
  milestone in its history; now, therefore, be it
 
         RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 85th
  Legislature, 1st Called Session, hereby commend the current and
  former Scouts and Scoutmasters of Boy Scout Troop 9 on their
  commitment to the Scouting movement and extend to them best wishes
  for a memorable 100th anniversary celebration; and, be it further
 
         RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for
  the troop as an expression of esteem from the Texas Senate.
