 R E S O L U T I O N
 WHEREAS, Collin Clark of Boy Scouts of America Troop No. 668
 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, one bestowed on only a small fraction of those who enter the
 scouting movement; in the course of meeting the rank's demanding
 criteria, Mr. Clark earned the requisite 21 merit badges and
 successfully completed an Eagle Scout project in which he repaired,
 replaced, and repainted playground equipment in the community of
 Myra; and
 WHEREAS, The son of Jason and Brenda Clark, this fine young
 Texan is the seventh member of his family to rise to the rank of
 Eagle Scout; Mr. Clark has demonstrated outstanding leadership
 ability throughout his scouting career, winning the respect and
 admiration of his fellow troop members as he worked toward the
 highest rank that the organization offers; and
 WHEREAS, A 2016 graduate of Lindsay High School, Mr. Clark
 plans to continue his education at North Central Texas College and
 at Stephen F. Austin State University; he hopes to earn a degree in
 forestry and eventually become a park ranger; and
 WHEREAS, Eagle Scout Clark'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 85th Texas
 Legislature hereby congratulate Collin Clark 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. Clark as an expression of high regard by the Texas
 House of Representatives.
