Summary

Senate Resolution No. 71 commends Benjamin O'Neill Seago for achieving the esteemed rank of Eagle Scout, an honor that represents a significant milestone in the Boy Scouts program.

The resolution highlights Benjamin's exemplary leadership displayed through his service-oriented project, which benefited his local community by providing enhanced facilities for children at Saint Joseph Catholic School.
