  Mr. OLSON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate three 
outstanding young men who have earned the rank of Eagle Scout with 
Missouri City Boy Scout Troop 395.
  These three Scouts are among less than five percent of all Boy Scouts 
to earn such a prestigious rank by dedicating countless hours towards 
organizing and working on service projects with Troop 395. For his 
Eagle Scout project, Ethan Spendlove, a senior at Ridge Point High 
School, built a shade canopy for a local community garden. Matheus 
Meneses, a senior at Elkins High School, built a corral trap for wild 
hogs at an area nature preserve. Tyler Echard, a sophomore at Ridge 
Point High School, built bat houses in his neighborhood to help lower 
the mosquito population. These Eagle Scouts exemplify the finest 
qualities of citizenship and leadership. We are extremely proud of 
their selfless dedication to our community and for demonstrating such 
strong leadership.
  On behalf of the Twenty-Second Congressional District of Texas, 
congratulations again to Ethan, Matheus, and Tyler for earning Eagle 
Scout. They have bright futures as community leaders ahead.
