is a prestigious recognition granted to an Eagle Scout who has demonstrated outstanding
achievement and service at the local, state, or regional level; and
WHEREAS, recipients of this award have devoted a lifetime to their profession,
avocation, community, and faith, at great sacrifice to themselves and their families; and each
individual receives recognition worthy of that achievement; and
WHEREAS, the rank of Eagle Scout is a rare pinnacle in scouting with only four
percent of all scouts attaining the rank of Eagle and, from those few, only six-tenths of one
percent receive the Outstanding Eagle Scout Award; and
WHEREAS, while a young Eagle Scout, Randy received the Bronze Palm for
earning five merit badges beyond the required twenty-one badges for the rank of Eagle and
the Ad Altere Dai Emblem which reflects his growth in spiritual experience and his
relationship to God and the Roman Catholic Church; and
WHEREAS, the Boy Scout Oath states, "On my honor, I will do my best. To do my
duty to God and my country and to obey the Scout Law; To help other people at all times;
To keep myself physically strong, mentally awake, and morally straight", and Randy Haynie
has upheld that promise in thought, word, and deed; and
