SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 449
WHEREAS, Cody Michael Powell of Boy Scouts of America Troop
151 in Georgetown 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. Powell earned the requisite 21 merit badges, and
for his Eagle Scout project, he designed, constructed, and
installed three ride-up stations along an equine trail at the
Ride on Center for Kids; 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; and
WHEREAS, Eagle Scout Powell'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,
83rd Legislature, hereby congratulate Cody Michael Powell 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. Powell as an expression of high regard by the
Texas Senate.
