            LUIS FERNANDO SANCHEZ EARNS RANK OF EAGLE SCOUT

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. PETE OLSON

                                of texas

                    in the house of representatives

                        Tuesday, August 7, 2018

  Mr. OLSON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Luis Fernando 
Sanchez of Richmond, TX for earning the rank of Eagle Scout. Eagle 
Scout is the highest honor a Boy Scout can earn.
  Only a small percentage of Boy Scouts reach the rank of Eagle Scout, 
which requires years of effort to develop the necessary leadership, 
service and outdoor skills. To earn this honor, Luis earned 33 merit 
badges, and developed and provided leadership to others in a service 
project. For his project, Luis constructed a prayer and meditation area 
for Sacred Heart Family Catholic Church in Richmond, TX. Luis attends 
Travis High School and plans to study aeronautical engineering in 
college. His dedication to our community has prepared him to be a 
leader in his future career. The leadership skills he has learned 
through Boy Scouts are already benefiting our community.
  On behalf of the Twenty-Second Congressional District of Texas, 
congratulations again to Luis for becoming an Eagle Scout. I am proud 
and confident of his continued success. I thank him for his dedication 
to making our community a better place.
