  Mr. GRAVES. Mr. Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize Casey M. 
Dupree, son of Keith and Carol Dupree of Saint Joseph, Missouri. Casey 
is 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 31, and by earning the most prestigious award of 
Eagle Scout. Casey will receive his Eagle Award on October 2, 2005 at 
Saint Francis Xavier Parish Center.
  Casey has been very active with his troop, participating in many 
Scout activities. Over the 6 years Casey has been involved with 
Scouting, he has earned numerous merit badges, honors, and leadership 
positions. Casey has served his troop as Patrol Leader, Assistant 
Senior Patrol Leader, Senior Patrol Leader, and Troop Guide. Casey 
holds the rank of Tom Tom Beater in the Tribe of Mic-O-Say. During his 
years in the Scouts, Casey spent 6 years at Camp Geiger, and went on 
both the Canoe Trip and Katy Trail 50 Mile Bike Ride for 3 years.
  For his Eagle Scout project, Casey stained flower boxes for Our Lady 
of Guadalupe Church.
  Mr. Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Casey M. 
Dupree for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America and for 
his efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle 
Scout.
