recognize May 19, 2015, as American Heritage Day at the Capitol; and | ||
WHEREAS, This special event is being held in conjunction | ||
with the 20th anniversary of the American Heritage Girls, an | ||
organization founded in 1995 with the mission of building women | ||
of integrity through service to God, family, community, and | ||
country; and | ||
WHEREAS, American Heritage Girls offers girls from age | ||
five to 18 the opportunity to earn badges by achieving goals in a | ||
wide range of categories known as frontiers; these categories are | ||
heritage, family living, arts, outdoor skills, personal | ||
well-being, and science and technology; and | ||
WHEREAS, The program emphasizes the importance of girl | ||
leadership, life-skill enhancement, teamwork development and | ||
confidence building, and social, character, and spiritual | ||
development; girls can earn service stars for community service, | ||
along with activity patches, religious recognition awards, and | ||
sports pins; and | ||
WHEREAS, The American Heritage Girls program has had a | ||
profound influence on the lives of countless girls and young | ||
women, and Texas is privileged to have the largest number of the | ||
organization's troops in the nation; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 84th | ||
Legislature, hereby welcome the delegation of the American | ||
