TO CONGRATULATE COLBY RYAN LINN OF BLYTHEWOOD FOR HIS REMARKABLE ACCOMPLISHMENTS IN THE BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA AND TO SALUTE HIM UPON ACHIEVING THE CELEBRATED RANK OF EAGLE SCOUT, THE HIGHEST AWARD IN SCOUTING.
Whereas, on February 9, 2022, Colby Ryan Linn of Troop 900 of the Indian Waters Council successfully passed his Eagle Scout Board of Review and thus completed the requirements for the rank of Eagle Scout; and
Whereas, the son of Sharyn and Mike Linn of Blythewood, Colby has received the National Outdoor Achievement Award for camping and the Eagle Scout Bronze Palm Award, in addition to his Eagle Scout status; and
Whereas, having begun his Scouting career in September 2010 as a Tiger Cub, Colby officially will receive the rank of Eagle Scout on May 28, 2022, at Windsor United Methodist Church; and
Whereas, for his Eagle project, Colby planned and carried out the installation of fencing for Doko Meadows Park in Blythewood; and
Whereas, to earn the rank of Eagle Scout, a Boy Scout must demonstrate that he lives by the principles of the Scout Oath and Law in his daily life; he must plan, develop, and give leadership to others in a service project helpful to any religious institution, any school, or his community; and he must earn a total of twenty-one merit badges, actively serve in a position of responsibility within his troop for six months, take part in a Scoutmaster conference, and complete his Eagle Scout Board of Review; and
Whereas, throughout history, only about 2% of Boy Scouts have completed these rigorous requirements to achieve the prestigious rank of Eagle Scout; and
Whereas, the House is grateful for the legacy of Scouting in America and takes great pride in acknowledging the achievements of young South Carolinians like Colby Ryan Linn who selflessly give of their time, talents, and energy to enrich their local communities and our State. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, congratulate Colby Ryan Linn of Blythewood for his remarkable accomplishments in the Boy Scouts of America and salute him upon achieving the celebrated rank of Eagle Scout, the highest award in Scouting.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Colby Ryan Linn.
