WHEREAS, Kevin James Needles of Boy Scouts of America Venture
Crew 17 in San Antonio 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. Needles earned the requisite 21 merit badges,
including those that require expertise in such diverse areas as
electricity, medicine, and photography, and successfully completed
an Eagle Scout project of benefit to his community; and
WHEREAS, The son of Jeffrey and Susan Joanne Needles, 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, His dedication to excellence and perseverance in the
pursuit of his goals have proven Eagle Scout Needles 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 Kevin James Needles 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. Needles as an expression of high regard by the
Texas House of Representatives.
