  Mr. GRAVES of Missouri. Mr. Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize 
Kolby Dean Goff. Kolby is 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 418, and earning the most 
prestigious award of Eagle Scout.
  Kolby has been very active with his troop, participating in many 
scout activities. Over the many years Kolby has been involved with 
scouting, he has not only earned numerous merit badges, but also the 
respect of his family, peers, and community. Most notably, Kolby has 
contributed to his community through his Eagle Scout project. Kolby 
designed and constructed an outdoor classroom at his sister's 
elementary school, building a nature learning center and an life-size 
outdoor checkerboard.
  Mr. Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Kolby Dean 
Goff for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America and for his 
efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle Scout.
