qualities of citizenship and leadership by taking an active part in the

activities as the H. Roe Bartle Scout Reservation for 4 years. Over the 
9 years he has been involved in scouting, he has earned 29 merit 
badges. Additionally, Kyle has held several leadership positions,

Buckner Elementary School in Buckner, Missouri. Additionally, Kyle 
painted two four squares, basketball lanes and playground signs.
  Mr. Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Kyle Alan
