  Mr. OLSON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate six new Eagle 
Scouts of Troop 1631 in Sugar Land, TX.
  Eagle Scout is the highest rank among Boy Scouts, requiring them to 
develop leadership, service and outdoor skills. The new Eagle Scouts 
are Mitchell Nguyen, Zack Dagnall, Tejas Murali, Spencer Reitz, Danny 
Penczak and Kody Ngo. To achieve the Eagle Scout rank, these Scouts 
have collectively hiked 571 miles, volunteered 194 hours, camped 361 
nights, earned 194 merit badges, and have completed many leadership 
activities. Troop 1631, sponsored by the Optimist Club, has helped over 
150 Scouts become Eagles over its 35 years.
  On behalf of the Twenty-Second Congressional District of Texas, 
congratulations again to Mitchell, Zack, Tejas, Spencer, Danny and 
Kody. We are proud of them and their accomplishments and look forward 
to their future successes.
