 WHEREAS, Elizabeth Fong, through her diligence and rigorous efforts,
has achieved Scouting's highest and most prestigious honor, the Gold
Award; the ceremony will be held on Wednesday, June 17, 2026; and

 WHEREAS, Elizabeth Fong of Great Neck, New York is a member of Girl
Scouts of the United States of America, Nassau County; and

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

youth, tomorrow's leaders, that America will maintain its glory; and

the development of character and leadership in the youth of this Nation;
and

 WHEREAS, Since 1916, Senior Girl Scouts have sought to cap their
years in Girl Scouting with the prized Gold Award, which challenges
girls to change the world; and

 WHEREAS, In order to earn the 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, Elizabeth Fong's project educated children about dental
hygiene and health; 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, Elizabeth Fong 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 Elizabeth Fong upon the occasion of earning the
Gold Award; and be it further

 RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to Elizabeth Fong.
