A RESOLUTION
Honoring the Village of Danville on its Two Hundredth Anniversary.

       WHEREAS,  The members of the House of Representatives of the 130th General Assembly of Ohio are pleased to extend special recognition to the Village of Danville on the auspicious occasion of its Two Hundredth Anniversary; and

       WHEREAS,  Over the past two centuries, the Village of Danville has become known for its residents' cooperation, integrity, and willingness to work hard--exemplary qualities that are still manifested by its citizens today. Since its inception in 1813, the village has enjoyed the benefits of a generous and civic-minded population, and those who currently make Danville their home take great pride in their community and its rich heritage. Their efforts have certainly made the area a pleasant and friendly place in which to live and work; and 

       WHEREAS,  Two hundred years after it was founded, the Village of Danville still radiates vitality, optimism, and a charm all its own. The village's schools, businesses, factories, and civic organizations both embody and thrive upon the values of which our flag is an emblem. A vigorous commitment to public service and an earnest devotion to lofty ideals have long been second nature to most of Danville's residents, and vigilance, industriousness, and generosity have come to typify their collective character; and

       WHEREAS,  America is only as strong as her individual communities, which are unique and which make a significant contribution to the culture of our state and nation. The Two Hundredth Anniversary of the Village of Danville, celebrated during its Danville-Howard Turkey Festival, June 12-15, offers its citizens the opportunity to share their memories and experiences and to reflect on the benefits of life in their close-knit community, for they have built on the best traditions of the past to ensure a future filled with hope and promise; therefore be it

       RESOLVED,  That we, the members of the House of Representatives of the 130th General Assembly of Ohio, in adopting this Resolution, congratulate the Village of Danville on its Bicentennial and extend best wishes for peace and prosperity in the years to come; and be it further

       RESOLVED,  That the Clerk of the House of Representatives transmit a duly authenticated copy of this Resolution to the Village of Danville.
