Bill > K00649

This resolution congratulates Andrew C. Rappa on achieving the rank of Eagle Scout, which is the highest and most prestigious rank in Scouts BSA, attained by only approximately 5% of all Scouts. A member of Troop 73 in White Plains, New York, Rappa is an 18-year-old high school senior who began his scouting journey in first grade and has demonstrated exceptional leadership and commitment to community service. For his Eagle Scout project, he designed and painted interactive games like hopscotch and four square in the parking lot of Delfino Park, showcasing his dedication to improving his local community. The resolution highlights Rappa's perseverance in rising through the scouting ranks, noting that his achievement indicates his ability to master difficult tasks and suggests he is well-equipped to become a future leader. The legislative body pauses its deliberations to officially recognize and honor Rappa's accomplishment, and resolves to transmit a copy of the resolution to him as a formal acknowledgment of his significant milestone.
