  Mr. GRAVES. Mr. Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize James Riley 
Teeter, a very special young man who has exemplified the finest 
qualities of citizenship and leadership by taking an active part in the 
Boy Scouts of America, Troop 351, and in earning the most prestigious 
award of Eagle Scout.
  James has been very active with his troop, participating in many 
scout activities. Over the 4 years James has been involved with 
scouting, he has earned 32 merit badges and has held numerous 
leadership positions, serving as Patrol Leader, Quartermaster, Scribe, 
Assistant Patrol Leader, and Troop Guide. James is also a Brotherhood 
Member in the Order of the Arrow and is a Warrior in the Tribe of Mic-
O-Say.
  For his Eagle Scout project, James repaired the restroom facilities 
at the Platte County Fairgrounds in Tracy, Missouri. He pressure 
washed, painted, and mortared the restrooms, and also cleaned up the 
surrounding ground.
  Mr. Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending James Riley 
Teeter for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America and for 
his efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle 
Scout.
