CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
WHEREAS, Adam Taylor of Boy Scouts of America Troop No. 924 in
Houston 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. Taylor earned the requisite 21 merit badges and
successfully completed an Eagle Scout project of benefit to his
community, for which he oversaw the construction of a permanent
shade arbor and picnic tables at St. Mark's United Methodist
Church; and
WHEREAS, The son of Alex and Melissa Taylor, this fine young
Texan has demonstrated outstanding leadership ability throughout
his scouting career, winning the respect and admiration of his
fellow scouts as he worked toward the highest rank that scouting
offers; he is a member of the Baby Ocean of Soul Marching Band, the
golf team, and "The Gents" social service organization at Booker T.
Washington High School for the Engineering Professions, where he
was sophomore class president, and he serves as an usher and sings
in the choir at St. Mark's United Methodist Church; and
WHEREAS, Eagle Scout Taylor'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 81st Legislature of the State of Texas
hereby congratulate Adam Taylor on achieving the rank of Eagle
Scout and extend to him sincere best wishes for continued success
and happiness; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for Mr. Taylor as an expression of high regard by the Texas
House of Representatives and Senate.
