A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

TO COMMEMORATE THE NAMING BY THE SOUTH CAROLINA FORESTRY COMMISSION OF AN AREA DEDICATED TO RECREATION AND SPORTING DOG FIELD TRIAL EVENTS, TO BE LOCATED ON SAND HILLS STATE FOREST IN CHESTERFIELD COUNTY, FOR THE HONORABLE DR. H. COOPER BLACK, JR.

Whereas, the members of the General Assembly wish to honor the late Dr. H. Cooper Black, Jr., of Columbia who died October 24, 1993; and

Whereas, Dr. Black, who was born in Orangeburg County, admirably served his fellowman through his chosen vocation as a surgeon in the midlands of South Carolina; and

Whereas, Dr. Black contributed greatly to the Palmetto State's time-honored tradition of sport hunting and the conservation of natural resources through his love for the great outdoors, his active participation in the Sandlapper Field Trial Club, and his service as Chairman of the South Carolina Sporting Dog Commission; and

Whereas, his lifelong interest in and dedication to all aspects of sport hunting and natural resources conservation has left a legacy of true sportsmanship and respect for our natural resources that will inspire generations of South Carolinians to come; and

Whereas, the General Assembly of South Carolina feels it is fitting and proper that this true sportsman, Dr. H. Cooper Black, Jr., is honored by naming an area dedicated to recreation and sporting dog field trial events for him. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:

That the members of the General Assembly commemorate the naming by the South Carolina Forestry Commission of an area dedicated to recreation and sporting dog field trial events, to be located on Sand Hills State Forest in Chesterfield County, for the Honorable Dr. H. Cooper Black, Jr.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to Dr. Black's widow, Mrs. Jackie Dubose Black.
