SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 715
|
|
|
WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to |
|
|
recognize Durham Kevin White for achieving the rank of |
|
|
Eagle Scout; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, This fine young man is a member of Scouts BSA |
|
|
Troop 155 in Georgetown; 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, Durham 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, he cleared a |
|
|
shaded area and installed benches at Our Lady of the Rosary |
|
|
Cemetery in Georgetown so families can sit and reflect on the |
|
|
lives of loved ones; he is truly a shining example to his fellow |
|
|
Scouts and the young people of Texas; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, By becoming an Eagle Scout, Durham 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, 86th |
|
|
Legislature, hereby commend Durham Kevin White on earning 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 White as an expression of esteem from the Texas Senate. |
