WHEREAS, Dedicated volunteers helped to preserve the natural |
|
|
splendor of Lake Ray Roberts on March 16, 2013, during the 6th |
|
|
Annual Waterway Cleanup hosted by Keep Pilot Point Beautiful; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Held in conjunction with the statewide Keep Texas |
|
|
Waterways Clean program, the event offered an opportunity for |
|
|
residents to donate their time in behalf of Lake Ray Roberts, a |
|
|
vital resource that provides recreational activities and drinking |
|
|
water for residents in nearby counties; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, This year, 18 people turned out on a Saturday |
|
|
morning to patrol the shoreline and collect trash and debris; after |
|
|
several hours, participants had filled nearly three dozen 30-gallon |
|
|
bags, totaling some 640 pounds of waste; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Sustaining the ecological health and beauty of the |
|
|
Lone Star State requires an active and responsible citizenry, and |
|
|
by taking part in this worthwhile endeavor, these volunteers have |
|
|
demonstrated an outstanding commitment to the area they call home; |
|
|
now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 83rd Texas |
|
|
Legislature hereby commend the participants in the 2013 Waterway |
|
|
Cleanup Day and extend to all those associated with Keep Pilot Point |
|
|
Beautiful sincere best wishes for continued success with their |
|
|
future endeavors. |
