SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 1017
WHEREAS, Craig Brandenberger of Boy Scouts of America
Troop No. 209 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. Brandenberger earned the requisite 21 merit badges
and successfully completed an Eagle Scout project of benefit to
his community, which consisted of making improvements to the
memorial garden at Holy Covenant United Methodist Church; 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; he is a
member of the National Honor Society and National Art Honor
Society at Faith West Academy; he serves his church as sound
technician and as a member of youth council, youth praise band,
and handbell choir, and he plans to study marine biology at Texas
A&M University at Galveston after his graduation; and
WHEREAS, Eagle Scout Brandenberger'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 Senate of the State of Texas, 81st
Legislature, hereby congratulate Craig Brandenberger on
achieving the rank of Eagle Scout and extended 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. Brandenberger as an expression of high regard
from the Texas Senate.
