Senate Resolution No. 182 recognizes Clayton Ross Newman of Scouting America Troop No. 194 in Pleasanton for achieving the prestigious rank of Eagle Scout. This honor is awarded to a select few within the scouting community, and Mr. Newman has met the rigorous requirements by earning 21 merit badges and completing a community service project. His project involved building a GaGa Ball pit in Pleasanton River Park, which provides local children with an additional recreational option.

The resolution highlights Mr. Newman's leadership skills, noting his various roles within the troop, including historian, librarian, and assistant senior patrol leader, as well as his membership in the Order of the Arrow. A junior at Pleasanton High School, he plans to pursue studies in mechanics and welding at Universal Technical Institute after graduation. The Texas Senate extends its congratulations to Mr. Newman for his accomplishments and wishes him continued success and happiness, with an official copy of the resolution to be prepared in his honor.
