                            HON. DAVID YOUNG

                                of iowa

                    in the house of representatives

                        Monday, January 29, 2018

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Bryce Wilbur, of Indianola, Iowa, for attaining the rank 
of Eagle Scout.
  To earn the Eagle Scout rank, a Boy Scout is obligated to demonstrate 
how they live out the Scout Spirit in their life, to serve as a leader 
in their troop, earn a total of 21 merit badges, and, finally, to 
complete an Eagle Scout Project to benefit the community. For his 
project, Bryce supervised 25 people in tearing down an old stone 
retaining wall at Lake Ahquabi State Park in Indianola and replacing it 
with a new wall using railroad ties and crushed rock. The work ethic 
Bryce has shown in his Eagle Scout Project and throughout his scouting 
career speaks volumes about his commitment to serving a cause greater 
than himself and bettering his community.
  Mr. Speaker, the example set by this young man and his supportive 
family demonstrates the rewards of hard work, dedication, and 
perseverance. I am proud to represent Bryce and his family in the 
United States Congress. I ask that my colleagues in the United States 
House of Representatives join me in congratulating him on obtaining the 
Eagle Scout ranking, and in wishing him nothing but continued success.
