H.R. No. 1294
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Garrett Ash of Boy Scouts of America Troop No. 299 in
Flower Mound 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. Ash earned the requisite 21 merit badges and
successfully completed an Eagle Scout project of benefit to his
community, which included the rejuvenation of historic McCombs
Cemetery in his hometown; and
WHEREAS, 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; and
WHEREAS, Eagle Scout Ash'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 81st Texas
Legislature hereby congratulate Garrett Ash 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. Ash as an expression of high regard by the Texas
House of Representatives.
