Honoring the Sandusky Lions Club on its One Hundredth Anniversary.

WHEREAS, The members of the House of Representatives of the 136th General Assembly of Ohio are pleased to extend special recognition to the Sandusky Lions Club on its Centennial; and

WHEREAS, Over the years, the Sandusky Lions Club has consistently displayed volunteerism, community service, and civic engagement. Chartered on July 1, 1925, it is one of only two Lions clubs worldwide to be sponsored directly by the International Association of Lions Clubs rather than another local club, and it has striven to support individuals with vision needs and to build a stronger, more inclusive community through its various activities and projects; and

WHEREAS, Due to the tremendous effort and initiative it has exhibited, the Sandusky Lions Club has grown significantly during the last century, and this noteworthy organization is certainly deserving of acknowledgement. This special anniversary offers a unique opportunity to reflect on the group’s tradition of success and to look with optimism to the future; and

WHEREAS, It is not surprising that the Sandusky Lions Club has achieved widespread recognition, for it has far surpassed the expectations of its founders. Indeed, it exemplifies the essence of the American spirit of generosity and service and sets the standard to which other such organizations can aspire; therefore be it

RESOLVED, That we, the members of the House of Representatives of the 136th General Assembly of Ohio, in adopting this Resolution, congratulate the Sandusky Lions Club on the occasion of its Centennial and salute its members as some of Ohio’s finest citizens; and be it further

RESOLVED, That the Clerk of the House of Representatives transmit a duly authenticated copy of this Resolution to the Sandusky Lions Club.
