WHEREAS, Shelby Brainard of Boy Scouts of America Troop
No. 155 in Georgetown has attained the rank of Eagle Scout, and this
accomplishment truly merits special recognition; and
WHEREAS, 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. Brainard earned the requisite 21 merit badges and successfully
completed an Eagle Scout project, which involved the rejuvenation
of two play areas at First Presbyterian Church of Georgetown; and
WHEREAS, This fine young Texan has demonstrated outstanding
leadership ability throughout his scouting career, serving twice as
patrol leader and winning the respect and admiration of his fellow
troop members as he worked toward the highest rank that the
organization offers; and
WHEREAS, A 2017 graduate of East View High School,
Mr. Brainard was captain of the debate team and a member of the
National Honor Society; he has further distinguished himself as a
three-year participant in the Williamson County Teen Court, and he
gained valuable experience as a page in the United States Senate; he
plans to attend Princeton University in the fall; and
WHEREAS, Eagle Scout Brainard'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, 1st Called Session, hereby congratulate Shelby
Brainard 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 Brainard as an expression of high regard by
the Texas House of Representatives.
