A RESOLUTION


Commending Jared David Leonard; and for other purposes.

WHEREAS, Jared David Leonard 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 Jared has ably demonstrated his aptitude and competency in mastering the various special skills taught through the Boy Scout program; and

WHEREAS, Jared is currently a student at Georgia Tech; and his Eagle Scout project was to design an original website for St. Michael the Archangel Roman Catholic Church in order to facilitate community outreach and youth program activities; 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 with particularity the outstanding accomplishments of this extraordinary individual.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE SENATE that the members of this body commend Jared David Leonard 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 Jared David Leonard.
