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. |
