  Mr. GRAVES of Missouri. Mr. Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize 
Chase Folsom. Chase 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 271, and earning the most 
prestigious award of Eagle Scout.
   Chase has been very active with his troop, participating in many 
scout activities. Over the many years Chase 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, Chase has 
led his troop as the Senior Patrol Leader, earned the rank of Shaman in 
the Tribe of Mic-O-Say, and become a Brotherhood member of the Order of 
the Arrow. Chase has also contributed to his community through his 
Eagle Scout project. Chase designed and constructed the Briarcliff 
Elementary School `Veggie Patch,' which included constructing six 
planter boxes and a six foot chain link fence around the garden.
   Mr. Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Chase Folsom 
for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America and for his 
efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle Scout.
