WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to | ||
recognize Benton Tyler Ward for achieving the rank of | ||
Eagle Scout; and | ||
WHEREAS, This fine young man is a member of the Boy Scouts | ||
of America in San Antonio; as he joins the elite corps of Eagles, | ||
he will receive the coveted Eagle Badge at a Court of Honor; and | ||
WHEREAS, Few achieve this distinguished honor; only a | ||
small percentage of boys in the Scouts BSA program attain the | ||
rank of Eagle Scout; and | ||
WHEREAS, Following the principles of the Scout oath and | ||
promise, Benton advanced through the ranks of Tenderfoot, | ||
Second, First, Star, and Life classes before reaching Eagle | ||
Scout; and | ||
WHEREAS, This personable young man displayed leadership | ||
through planning, developing, and conducting a service project | ||
that benefited his community; for his project, Benton led a group | ||
of Scouts and volunteers that built a granite pathway, | ||
predator-proof chicken coops, and a rabbit hutch at Camp CAMP, | ||
which is a camp designed for children with special needs, in | ||
Center Point; he is truly a shining example to his fellow Scouts | ||
and to the young people of Texas; and | ||
WHEREAS, By becoming an Eagle Scout, Benton has brought | ||
great honor to himself, his family, his troop, his community, and | ||
his state; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 88th | ||
Legislature, hereby commend Benton Ward on receiving this | ||
prestigious honor and congratulate him on his outstanding | ||
achievement; and, be it further | ||
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for | ||
Eagle Scout Ward as an expression of esteem from the Texas | ||
Senate. | ||
