H.R. No. 295
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, The Belton High School Magic Belles performed in the
130th Rose Parade in Pasadena, California, on January 1, 2019, and
this achievement is indeed worthy of special recognition; and
WHEREAS, The team's 28 dancers arrived in Los Angeles on
December 28 to prepare for the New Year's festivities; following a

of Temecula; the Magic Belles' performance dazzled parade attendees
as well as those tuning in from across the country; and

Parade, the Magic Belles have garnered numerous accolades at the
national level; the team is a four-time national championship
competitor, and in March 2018, it was crowned the medium class
national champion team at the American Dance/Drill Team
National/International Championship; and
WHEREAS, Benefiting from the direction of Rachel Hill and
Marla Moore, the Magic Belles have demonstrated outstanding talent
and commitment to excellence, and they are a source of great pride
to their families, school, and community; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 86th Texas
Legislature hereby honor the Belton High School Magic Belles for
their performance in the 2019 Rose Parade and extend to them sincere
best wishes for the future; and, be it further
