	SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 692
	WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to
	recognize Poth Hermann Sons Lodge 272-2 on the occasion of its
	100th anniversary; and
	WHEREAS, Poth Hermann Sons Lodge 272-2 was officially
	organized on April 2, 1911, through the efforts of Alex Klaus,
	Frank Malcher, August H. Raabe, Andreas J. Reinhard, and a group
	of other dedicated men; it grew out of what had previously been
	the German Amusement Club of Poth, established in 1907; and
	WHEREAS, Through the years, lodge members have worked with
	community and city leaders to accommodate local groups by
	offering them the use of the lodge's facilities; when the hall
	was rebuilt following a fire in 1940, the new structure was
	increased six feet in height so that the high school could use the
	building as a gymnasium; in its newest location, the lodge offers
	the community the use of a centrally air-conditioned and heated
	space; and
	WHEREAS, For 100 years, Poth Hermann Sons Lodge 272-2 has
	played an important role in the cultural life of the Poth
	community, and it is truly deserving of recognition as its
	members celebrate its centennial anniversary; now, therefore, be
	it
	RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 82nd
	Legislature, hereby commend Poth Hermann Sons Lodge 272-2 on its
	many contributions to the community and extend to its members
	best wishes for a memorable 100th anniversary celebration; and,
	be it further
	RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for
	this outstanding organization as an expression of esteem from the
	Texas Senate.
