R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Christopher Jacob Joseph Rowden of Boy Scouts of
America Troop No. 442 in Friendswood 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. Rowden earned the requisite 21 merit badges and
successfully completed an Eagle Scout project that involved
building planter boxes for a garden at Mary Queen Catholic Church;
and
WHEREAS, This fine young Texan has demonstrated outstanding
leadership ability throughout his scouting career, winning the
respect and admiration of the fellow members of his troop as he
worked toward the highest rank that the organization offers; he is a
member of the Order of the Arrow, and he has volunteered his time
and talent to benefit a number of community efforts; and
WHEREAS, Eagle Scout Rowden'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 84th Texas
Legislature hereby congratulate Christopher Jacob Joseph Rowden 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. Rowden as an expression of high regard by the Texas
House of Representatives.
