WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to
recognize the Lions Clubs across Central Texas for their many
outstanding contributions to their communities; and
WHEREAS, Central Texas Lions Clubs are an integral part of
Lions Clubs International, which, with 1.35 million members in
more than 45,000 clubs, is the world's largest service club

Central Texas Lions Clubs have embraced a wide variety of other
important causes, including scholarship fund-raising,
children's camps, education, and youth sports; and
WHEREAS, Central Texas Lions Clubs have had a profound
impact on their communities, and they are truly deserving of
recognition for their many exceptional achievements; now,
therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 83rd
Legislature, hereby commend the Central Texas Lions Clubs on
their dedication and commitment and extend to them best wishes
for continued success in all their endeavors; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for
the clubs as an expression of high regard from the Texas Senate.
