H.R. No. 1927
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Sixteen members of Boy Scouts of America Troop No.
399 in Austin have 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, these notable young Texans earned the requisite 21 merit
badges and successfully completed Eagle Scout projects of benefit
to their community, contributing to an area fire station, school,
and church; and
WHEREAS, The new Eagle Scouts of Troop No. 399 are: Andrew
Wiewel, James Thompson III, Bennett Nadeau, Peter Teneriello,
Stephen King, Eli Mendoza, Andrew Marshall, Wilson Bauer, Benjamin
Lowry, Jonathan Box, Roy Reyna, Samuel Faries, Travis Owens, Andrew
Klitch, Santiago Dietche, and Cornelius Donovan II; and
WHEREAS, The dedication to excellence and the perseverance in
the pursuit of their goals that these young men have demonstrated
have proven them worthy to stand among scouting's elite, and it is
most appropriate that they be honored at this time; now, therefore,
be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 81st Texas
Legislature hereby congratulate the scouts of Troop No. 399 on
achieving the rank of Eagle Scout and extend to them sincere best
wishes for continued success and happiness; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for the scouts as an expression of high regard by the Texas
House of Representatives.
Howard of Travis
