|
|
||
| WHEREAS, Cavan Lewis Larnard of Boy Scouts of America Troop | ||
| No. 222 in Arlington has attained the rank of Eagle Scout, and this | ||
| accomplishment truly merits special recognition; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Receiving 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. Larnard earned 33 merit badges, and he successfully | ||
| completed an Eagle Scout project that involved designing and | ||
| planting a memorial garden for Amy Argersinger at James W. Martin | ||
| High School; and | ||
| WHEREAS, The son of Steven and Maureen Larnard, this fine | ||
| young Texan has demonstrated outstanding leadership ability as a | ||
| scout, earning the prestigious Arrow of Light and Bronze and Gold | ||
| Eagle Palm commendations; in addition, he has earned the respect | ||
| and admiration of his fellow scouts for his service as patrol | ||
| leader, quartermaster, historian, and president of Venture Crew 4; | ||
| and | ||
| WHEREAS, Cavan Larnard has also distinguished himself as a | ||
| member of the Tejas District Color Guard and his involvement with | ||
| this group allowed him to participate in the festivities | ||
| surrounding the 2001 and 2005 inaugurations of President George W. | ||
| Bush and two Texas governors; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Eagle Scout Larnard'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 80th Texas | ||
| Legislature hereby congratulate Cavan Lewis Larnard on becoming an | ||
| Eagle Scout and extend to him best wishes for continued success; | ||
| and, be it further | ||
| RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
| prepared for Mr. Larnard as an expression of high regard by the | ||
| Texas House of Representatives. | ||
