H.R. No. 664
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, David McKinnon White of Boy Scouts of America Crew
No. 670 in San Antonio has attained the rank of Eagle Scout, and
this accomplishment truly merits special recognition; and
WHEREAS, Receiving the Eagle Scout insignia 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. White earned the requisite 21 merit badges, including
those requiring expertise in such diverse areas as leatherwork,
archery, and aviation, and successfully completed an Eagle Scout
project of benefit to his community, which consisted in part of the
placement of markers to identify plants in Friedrich Wilderness
Park; and
WHEREAS, The son of Leslie White, 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 distinction that scouting
offers; he was venturing crew president, and, as a Cub Scout, he
earned the Arrow of Light Award; and
WHEREAS, Eagle Scout White'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 David McKinnon White on achieving
the rank of Eagle Scout and extend to him sincere best wishes for
continued success; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for Mr. White as an expression of high regard by the Texas
House of Representatives.
