A
RESOLUTION
Commending
Alvaro Lopez; and for other purposes.
WHEREAS,
Alvaro Lopez has attained the rank of Eagle Scout, the most distinguished rank
conferred by the Boy Scouts of America; and
WHEREAS,
a candidate for the most exceptional award in scouting must complete a rigorous
program of training and demonstrate his proficiency in selected scouting
techniques and attainment of the highest ideals of scouting; and
WHEREAS,
only one scout out of 97 ever reaches this lofty level of achievement, and
Alvaro Lopez has ably demonstrated his aptitude and competency in mastering the
various special skills taught through the Boy Scout program; and
WHEREAS,
this outstanding young man has truly exhibited a commitment to scouting
principles, as demonstrated by his Eagle Scout project where he constructed an
outdoor classroom for Montclair Elementary School, including picnic tables in a
courtyard of the school and a garden box in memory of the school's former
gardener; and
WHEREAS,
in a world which consistently seems to accentuate the negative aspects of the
actions of young people, it is abundantly fitting and proper for this body to
recognize Alvaro Lopez with particularity for the outstanding accomplishments of
this extraordinary individual.
NOW,
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE SENATE that the members of this body commend
Alvaro Lopez for his diligence and dedication in pursuing the highest honor
awarded by the Boy Scouts of America and congratulate him on attaining the
prestigious rank of Eagle Scout.
BE
IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Secretary of the Senate is authorized and directed
to transmit an appropriate copy of this resolution to Alvaro Lopez.
