BY: Senator THOMAS

        CONGRATULATING  Rebecca  Kleiner upon the occasion
        of  receiving  the  distinguished  Girl  Scout  Gold
        Award, the most prestigious of Scouting honors

  WHEREAS,   Rebecca  Kleiner,  through  her  diligence  and  rigorous
efforts, has achieved Scouting's highest and most prestigious honor, the
Girl Scout Gold Award; and

  WHEREAS, Rebecca Kleiner is a member of Girl Scouts of America Troop
3674, East Meadow, New York; and

  WHEREAS, America has achieved her greatest heights of glory  through
the  dedication,  determination  and tireless efforts of the outstanding
citizens of this Nation; and

  WHEREAS, It is only with the continued diligence and devotion of our
youth, tomorrow's leaders, that America will maintain her glory; and

  WHEREAS, The Girl Scouts of America and its members are dedicated to
the development of character and leadership in the youth of this Nation;
and

  WHEREAS, Since 1919, Senior Girl Scouts have  sought  to  cap  their
years  in  Girl  Scouting  with  the prized Girl Scout Gold Award, which
challenges girls to change the world; and

  WHEREAS, In order to earn the Girl Scout Gold  Award,  a  girl  must
complete   a  rigorous  set  of  service,  leadership  development,  and
skill-building tasks leading  up  to  the  final  and  most  challenging
requirement,  the  design  and completion of a Take Action Project; this
project must be an issue of interest to  the  girl  and  her  community,
employ team-based solutions, and educate and inspire others; and

  WHEREAS,  This outstanding young woman has been involved in Scouting
for years, has lived up to Scouting's ideals and has attained all of the
necessary achievements; and

  WHEREAS, Rebecca Kleiner is a credit to her family, her school,  her
community,  her  State  and  her Nation, and no doubt her future will be
filled with accomplishments of equal importance; now, therefore, be it

  RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations,  in
recognition  of  the  significance  of  this meritorious achievement, to
congratulate  and  honor  Rebecca  Kleiner  upon  the  occasion  of  her
designation as recipient of the Girl Scout Gold Award; and be it further

  RESOLVED,  That  a  copy  of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to Rebecca Kleiner.
