| WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to | ||
| recognize the Denver Harbor Little League on the occasion of its | ||
| 58th anniversary and on the opening of this year's season on | ||
| April 8, 2017; and | ||
| WHEREAS, In 1939, Carl Stotz envisioned a baseball program | ||
| that would give his young nephews an opportunity to play a sport | ||
| they loved but were not yet old enough to play as part of an | ||
| organized team; through his dedication to his family and to the | ||
| children of Williamsport, Pennsylvania, the Little League | ||
| baseball program was founded, and soon, communities around the | ||
| nation began establishing Little League charters for local | ||
| youth; and | ||
| WHEREAS, This year, the Denver Harbor Little League | ||
| program is celebrating 58 years of local youth participation in | ||
| America's favorite pastime; the chapter has played an important | ||
| role in the community as area children have continued to seek out | ||
| fun activities to engage in with their peers, and parents have | ||
| continued to pursue opportunities that contribute to their | ||
| children's overall health and well-being; and | ||
| WHEREAS, The Denver Harbor Little League helps to instill | ||
| good sportsmanship, courage, and loyalty in all who participate, | ||
| and much is owed to the many adult volunteers who have worked to | ||
| ensure the chapter's continued success in the community; the | ||
| program's 58th anniversary is indeed cause for celebration; now, | ||
| therefore, be it | ||
| RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 85th | ||
| Legislature, hereby commend all associated with the Denver | ||
| Harbor Little League and extend to them best wishes for a | ||
| memorable 58th-season opening ceremony; and, be it further | ||
| RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for | ||
| the league as an expression of esteem from the Texas Senate. | ||
| Garcia | ||
