RESOLUTION EXTENDING CONGRATULATIONS TO ROBERT SENDECKI FOR ACHIEVING THE RANK OF EAGLE SCOUT
WHEREAS, Robert Sendecki, a member of the Boy Scouts of America Scout Troop 810, will be awarded Scouting's highest honor, the rank of Eagle Scout; and
WHEREAS, The City Council has been informed of this special occasion by the Honorable Marty Quinn, Alderman of the 13th Ward; and

WHEREAS, Robert earned the rank of Eagle Scout on July 25, 2020; and
WHEREAS, Robert's Eagle Scout Leadership Service Project was the Mutts of Midway Collection. It was not easy to find an organization that would allow donations during the Covid Pandemic but Robert was determined. Due to Covid, Robert could only collect a limited amount of items: leashes, collars and harnesses. Robert built contact free donation boxes that were placed outside at Our Lady of the Snows Church and Central Stickney Fire Station. The total number of supplies donated were about 50 items. Covid did not stop Robert from helping his community and all the animals that needed supplies. Robert completed 25 and a half hours towards his Eagle Scout Leadership Service Project; and
WHEREAS, Attaining the rank of Eagle Scout is achieved by only two percent of young men who enroll in the scouting program. To become an Eagle Scout, a Scout must earn twenty-one merit badges in addition to completing several community service projects; and
WHEREAS, Robert Sendecki has completed all of the requirements for the rank of Eagle Scout and has been examined by an Eagle Scout Board of Review, certifying his worthiness for Scouting's highest distinction and now joins the ranks of many successful and influential Eagle Scouts; now, therefore,
Be It Resolved, That we, the Mayor, and members of the City Council of the City of Chicago, gathered here this twenty-first day of September, 2022, do hereby extend our heartiest congratulations to Robert Sendecki on attaining the rank of Eagle Scout and wish him every success in all of his future endeavor...
