A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO HONOR SOUTH CAROLINA'S CINDERELLA QUEENS, TO COMMEND THE CINDERELLA SCHOLARSHIP PAGEANT FOR ITS FINE WORK IN YOUTH DEVELOPMENT, AND TO DECLARE APRIL 23, 2015, CINDERELLA DAY IN THE PALMETTO STATE.

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is pleased to learn of the outstanding work accomplished by South Carolina's Cinderella queens under the auspices of the Cinderella Scholarship Pageant; and

Whereas, founded in 1976, the Cinderella Scholarship Pageant has grown into the largest and most prestigious pageant system of its kind in the world; and

Whereas, more than just a beauty pageant, Cinderella is a youth-development scholarship program that offers many opportunities for achievement and recognition to deserving children, teens, and young adults. The pageant's high standards of excellence and principles have won the support of civic and service organizations, educators, and clergy from around the world; and

Whereas, this year, South Carolina's Cinderella queens have performed countless hours of service for anti-bullying programs, the Salvation Army, Children's Miracle Network, and Ronald McDonald House. Each of these young people, all under the age of twenty-one, will receive the presidential medal for community service in April for their excellent efforts; and

Whereas, grateful for the worthy achievements of the Cinderella queens, the House takes great pleasure in recognizing them and in declaring April 23, 2015, Cinderella Day in South Carolina. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, honor South Carolina's Cinderella queens, commend the Cinderella Scholarship Pageant for its fine work in youth development, and declare April 23, 2015, Cinderella Day in the Palmetto State.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be provided to Karen Sligh of the South Carolina Cinderella Scholarship Pageant.
