SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 222
WHEREAS, Members of the 2018-2019 Class of Leadership
Rowlett are visiting the State Capitol on February 21, 2019; and
WHEREAS, Sponsored by the Rowlett Chamber of Commerce, the
Leadership Rowlett program provides opportunities for
participants to meet other local civic and business leaders and
to learn more about the city's history, government, economy, and
social concerns; the curriculum combines lectures, dialogue, and
interaction to stimulate a cooperative environment and to
encourage the development of personal, organizational, and
community leadership skills; and
WHEREAS, Established in 1924, the Rowlett Chamber of
Commerce serves as the voice of the city's business community,
helping its members accomplish what no single member or business
could do alone; the chamber works to create programs to enhance
the general welfare and prosperity of Rowlett by promoting the
steady and balanced economic well-being of the community, and
over the past 95 years, it has played a vital role in the
development of Rowlett from a small agricultural town to a
modern, rapidly growing city; and
WHEREAS, Endeavoring to build a more informed and involved
citizenry and to cultivate new leaders in the region, this
invaluable program, and all those associated with it, are helping
to ensure a bright future for the Lone Star State; now,
therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 86th
Legislature, hereby recognize February 21, 2019, as Leadership
Rowlett Day at the State Capitol and extend to the visiting
delegation sincere best wishes for a memorable visit to Austin;
and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this Resolution be
prepared for the group as an expression of high regard by the
Texas Senate.
Hall, Johnson
