A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO COMMEND THE CAMDEN FIRST UNITED METHODIST WOMEN ON THEIR SPONSORSHIP OF THE FOURTH ANNUAL 5K TEEN PREGNANCY PREVENTION WALK-A-THON AND TO WISH THEM MUCH SUCCESS IN SUPPORTING THIS WORTHY CAUSE.

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is pleased to learn that the Camden First United Methodist Women will once again sponsor their 5K Teen Pregnancy Prevention Walk-a-thon, this year's edition being the fourth annual such event; and

Whereas, founded in 2011, the Teenage Pregnancy Prevention 5K Walk was created with the purpose of increasing awareness of the critical impact of teenage pregnancy in Kershaw County and surrounding areas as it relates to economics, education, and single parenting. Funds raised were designated to support organizations dedicated to combating the problem of teen pregnancy; and

Whereas, this year, the Camden First United Methodist Women will work in partnership with the South Carolina Campaign to Prevent Teen Pregnancy and the Family Resource Center to host the Fourth Annual Bowl-a-thon & 5K Walk-a-thon, scheduled for Saturday, May 17, 2014, from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.; and

Whereas, grateful for the outstanding work made possible by the Teenage Pregnancy Prevention 5K Walk, the House takes great pleasure in saluting the Camden First United Methodist Women and all those who assist in this endeavor, and the members encourage all citizens of South Carolina to attend and enjoy the event. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, commend the Camden First United Methodist Women on their sponsorship of the Fourth Annual 5K Teen Pregnancy Prevention Walk-a-thon and wish them much success in supporting this worthy cause.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be provided to the Camden First United Methodist Women.
