H.R. No. 1324
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Genaro Alejandro DeLeon of Boy Scouts of America
Troop No. 186 in Kingsville 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. DeLeon earned 25 merit badges in such diverse areas as
first aid, personal fitness, and environmental science; he has also
gained experience in leadership and teamwork while undertaking his
Eagle Scout project, which involved organizing the restoration of
the basketball court at St. Gertrude Catholic School; and
WHEREAS, This fine young Texan has demonstrated outstanding
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 plans to attend The University of Texas at
Austin, where he will major in biology as a premed student in the
Health Science Honors Program; and
WHEREAS, Eagle Scout DeLeon'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 83rd Texas
Legislature hereby congratulate Genaro Alejandro DeLeon 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 Eagle Scout DeLeon as an expression of high regard by
the Texas House of Representatives.
