Honoring Camp Conger on its One Hundredth Anniversary.

WHEREAS, The members of the House of Representatives of the 136th General Assembly of Ohio are pleased to congratulate Camp Conger as it celebrates its Centennial; and

WHEREAS, Recognition of this prestigious milestone is, indeed, a fitting tribute to Camp Conger, for it has attained a remarkable record of accomplishment to the Huron County 4-H program. The camp was established in 1925 on the Conger family farm, and over the years, the site has developed to include such permanent structures as cabins, a general headquarters, a recreation hall, and the Lewis and Florence Conger Hall, which houses the dining hall, kitchen, restrooms, and basement, as well as a lake for a variety of water activities. Providing a space for innumerable young people to experience the wonder and splendor of our natural world through its Cloverbud day, Junior, and Intermediate camps, the site serves approximately three hundred youth each session annually, and it has certainly earned the respect and appreciation of many over the past ten decades; and

WHEREAS, Willingly giving of their time, energy, and abilities, the staff and volunteers at Camp Conger have worked tirelessly to create a memorable experience for young people in the 4-H program. Clearly, these conscientious individuals are deserving of high praise for their diligent efforts, and they have set a fine example that is worthy of emulation; and

WHEREAS, As the stewards of Camp Conger celebrate this event, they have the unique opportunity to reaffirm their goals and to formulate new policies to meet the challenges of the future. It is through the work of people such as those associated with the camp, who are invested in the enrichment and improvement of others, that our state remains responsive to the needs of its residents; therefore be it

RESOLVED, That we, the members of the House of Representatives of the 136th General Assembly of Ohio, in adopting this Resolution, applaud Camp Conger on its One Hundredth Anniversary and salute its participants, staff, and volunteers as outstanding Ohioans; and be it further

RESOLVED, That the Clerk of the House of Representatives transmit a duly authenticated copy of this Resolution to Camp Conger.
