| H.R. No. 1426 | ||
|
|
||
| WHEREAS, The Wild Hog Hunt Committee of the Gilmer Area | ||
| Chamber of Commerce has been recognized with the chamber's 2010 Top | ||
| Hand Award for organizing the inaugural Upshur County Hog Wild | ||
| Hunting Tournament; and | ||
| WHEREAS, The Gilmer Area Chamber of Commerce presents the Top | ||
| Hand Award to a chamber committee that has excelled in its mission; | ||
| the members of the Wild Hog Hunt Committee were tasked with staging | ||
| the hunt as a fund-raiser, and in less than three months' time they | ||
| had everything ready; held on April 9-11, 2010, the successful | ||
| tournament raised money for the chamber while helping to cull the | ||
| growing population of feral hogs, which have become a problem | ||
| across the state; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Led by Chair Jeff Dodd, the other volunteers who | ||
| made up the committee were Jim Barnhart, Michael Blanks, Ike | ||
| Fluellen, Troy Murray, Becky Skinner, Byron Spencer, Mike Spencer, | ||
| Brandon Wilson, Jennifer Wilson, and Chane Young; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Through their hard work and deft organizational | ||
| skills, the members of the Wild Hog Hunt Committee have both helped | ||
| to further the programs of the Gilmer Area Chamber of Commerce and | ||
| directly assisted their community, and they can indeed take pride | ||
| in a job well done; now, therefore, be it | ||
| RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 82nd Texas | ||
| Legislature hereby congratulate the Wild Hog Hunt Committee of the | ||
| Gilmer Area Chamber of Commerce on receiving that organization's | ||
| Top Hand Award and extend to the committee members sincere best | ||
| wishes for continued success; and, be it further | ||
| RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
| prepared for the committee as an expression of high regard by the | ||
| Texas House of Representatives. | ||
