Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is pleased to learn that the Clover High School percussion ensemble won the top prize at the 2022 WGI Sport of the Arts World Championships, held in Dayton, Ohio; and
Whereas, having delivered an incredible and historic performance of this year's show, Medusa, the Clover High School percussion ensemble marched off with the first-place gold medal for the A-Class Division with a score of 97.800.

Whereas, to watch the Clover High percussion ensemble is to watch an exciting, Broadway-worthy performance; and
Whereas, to celebrate the accomplishments of this extraordinary group of young people, a community show is scheduled for Monday, May 2, 2022; and

Whereas, with much admiration, the South Carolina House of Representatives takes great pleasure in adding its collective voice to the many encomiums flowing in to the Clover High School percussion ensemble in tribute to the latest of its exceptional achievements. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
