HON. SAM GRAVES

Tuesday, July 26, 2022
Mr. GRAVES of Missouri. Madam Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize Colton Harris. Colton 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 1376, and earning the most prestigious award of Eagle Scout.
Colton has been very active with his troop, participating in many scout activities. Over the many years Colton has been involved with scouting, he has not only earned 33 merit badges, but also the respect of his family, peers, and community. Colton has achieved much as a scout, having achieved the ranks of Patrol Leader, Assistant Senior Patrol Leader, Troop Guide, Quartermaster, and Librarian. Colton has also contributed to his community through his Eagle Scout project. Colton's project entailed 200 hours of extensive landscaping to enhance the area in which he worked.
Madam Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Colton Harris for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America, and for his efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle Scout.
