LEGISLATIVE RESOLUTION congratulating Stasiu Chyczewski upon the occa-
sion of receiving the distinguished rank of Eagle Scout, the most pres-
tigious of Scouting honors, on Saturday, January 16, 2016

WHEREAS, Stasiu Chyczewski, through his diligence and rigorous efforts,
has achieved Scouting's highest and most prestigious rank, Eagle Scout;
the Eagle Court of Honor ceremony will be held on Saturday, January 16,
2016, at the Mount Sinai High School, Mount Sinai, New York; and
WHEREAS, Stasiu Chyczewski, the son of Tom and Susan Chyczewski, is a
member of Boy Scouts of America Troop 204, Miller Place, New York; he is
a member of the class of 2016 at Satellite High School and a former
student at Miller Place High School from 2012-2014; 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 Boy Scouts of America and its members are dedicated to
the development of character and leadership in the youth of this Nation;
and
WHEREAS, The highest achievement of leadership in Scouting, earned by
only five percent of all Boy Scouts, is the distinguished rank of Eagle
Scout; and
WHEREAS, This outstanding young man has been involved in Scouting for
many years, has lived up to Scouting's ideals and has attained all of
the necessary achievements, including completion of a community service
project, which was successfully planned, developed and executed; and
WHEREAS, For his project, Stasiu Chyczewski created new dressage
panels, each with unique colors, letters and shapes for Saddle Rock, a
local horseback riding arena for the developmentally disabled; the goal
was to create a system where riders could use a letter as well as a
shape and color to identify a panel making it easier for those with
mental disabilities who found it difficult to identify letters alone;
and
WHEREAS, Stasiu Chyczewski's perseverance in rising through the ranks
to Eagle Scout is a strong indication of his ability to master difficult
tasks; his accomplishment will enable him to emerge as a leader, fully
equipped to meet the challenges of today's complex society; and
WHEREAS, This new Eagle Scout is a credit to his family, his school,
his community, his State and his Nation, and no doubt his 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 Stasiu Chyczewski on achieving the rank of Eagle
Scout; and be it further
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be tran-
smitted to Stasiu Chyczewski.
