  Mr. GRAVES. Mr. Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize Stephen John 
Moore, 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 314, and in earning the most prestigious 
award of Eagle Scout.
  Stephen has been very active with his troop, earning his Bobcat, 
Wolf, Bear, and Webelos rankings as well as his God and Me, God and 
Family, and the Arrow of Light Awards. Over the ten years he has been 
involved in Scouting, he has held numerous leadership positions, 
serving as patrol leader, quartermaster, and senior patrol leader. 
Stephen also has been honored for his numerous scouting achievements by 
becoming a brotherhood member of the Order of the Arrow.
  For his Eagle Scout project, Stephen improved portions of a trail at 
the Parkville Nature Sanctuary. He constructed a rock bridge, two check 
dams, and a rocked part of the White Tail Trail, helping walkers get 
through the park more easily.
  Mr. Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Stephen John 
Moore for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America and for 
his efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle 
Scout.
