R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Nicholas Kerekgyarto of Boy Scouts of America Troop
No. 135 in McKinney 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. Kerekgyarto earned 26 merit badges and successfully
completed an Eagle Scout project of benefit to his community, which
involved painting a mural on a playground wall at his 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 through
his service as patrol leader and assistant senior patrol leader and
as a member of the Order of the Arrow; and
WHEREAS, A freshman at McKinney High School, Mr. Kerekgyarto
is a member of the school's Criminal Justice Club, which
participates in University Interscholastic League competitions and
provides additional security at school functions; he also
participates in Junior ROTC and is active at his place of worship,
where he regularly assists with children's church; and
WHEREAS, Eagle Scout Kerekgyarto'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 Nicholas Kerekgyarto 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 Kerekgyarto as an expression of high
regard by the Texas House of Representatives.
