WHEREAS, A 15-year-old sophomore in the Miami Independent | ||
School District, Mr. Hale has demonstrated outstanding commitment | ||
and ability in raising his champion animal; he has been showing | ||
steers for the past eight years; and | ||
WHEREAS, This outstanding young Texan has brought great pride | ||
to his family and community, and he is indeed deserving of special | ||
recognition; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the 88th Texas Legislature, 3rd | ||
Called Session, hereby congratulate Jett Hale on showing the grand | ||
champion youth market steer at the 75th annual Big Tex Youth | ||
Livestock Auction and extend to him sincere best wishes for | ||
continued success; and, be it further | ||
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
prepared for Mr. Hale as an expression of high regard by the Texas | ||
