WHEREAS, Daniel Lee Pollitt has been involved in the Boy Scouts of America
organization for 13 of his 18 years; and,
WHEREAS, Mr. Pollitt worked diligently to attain the rank of Eagle Scout, which is
achieved by only four of every 100 boys who enter Scouting. Mr. Pollitt
was awarded his Eagle Scout rank during the Court of Honor, a formal
ceremony held May 16, 2016, in Collier County; and,
WHEREAS, to achieve the rank of Eagle Scout, Mr. Pollitt had to earn at least
21 merit badges, demonstrate Scout Spirit - an ideal attitude based
upon the Scout Oath and Law, service and leadership - and complete
an extensive service project; and,
WHEREAS, for his Eagle Service Project, Mr. Pollitt built and delivered 25 Raised
Dog Beds to Collier County Domestic Animal Services. His project
promotes the health and well-being of the animals during their stay,
while promoting the values of scouting in cooperation with the
community; and
WHEREAS, in addition to receiving the Eagle Scout honor, Mr. Pollitt, a member
of Troop 25, was elected by his peers into the Scouting honor society
called the Order of the Arrow, which recognizes those Scouts who
best exemplify the Scout Oath and Law in their daily lives; and,
WHEREAS, this recognition provides encouragement for others to live these ideals
as well. Arrowmen are known for maintaining camping traditions and
spirit, promoting year-round and long-term resident camping and
providing cheerful service to others; and,
WHEREAS, the Collier County Board of County Commissioners values Mr. Pollitt’s
contributions to our community.
NOW THEREFORE, be it proclaimed by the Board of County Commissioners of Collier
County, Florida, that Mr. Daniel Pollitt is hereby recognized and
congratulated for all that he has done to make our community a better
place.
