TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR GLORY COMMUNICATIONS, INC., ON ITS FIFTEENTH YEAR OF PRESENTING THE GOSPEL MUSIC CELEBRATION "FAMILYFEST" AND FOR SPONSORING THE "FUTURE LEADER SCHOLARSHIP FUND" PRESENTATIONS HELD IN CONJUNCTION WITH "FAMILYFEST".

Whereas, for the last fifteen years, thousands of gospel music enthusiasts gather for a celebration of music, family, and goodwill known as "FamilyFest" presented by Glory Communications, Inc.; and

Whereas, this event features performances by national recording artists along with community and local church choirs, and it has always been free to the public; and

Whereas, the highlight of this event is the Future Leader Scholarship presentations, where scholarships are awarded to deserving high school seniors with strong academic skills, but who lack the financial resources needed to attend college; and

Whereas, the Future Leader Scholarship Fund is a joint community effort that brings listeners of Glory Communications together with advertisers, community agencies, and corporate sponsors, and the Future Leader Scholarship Fund has awarded nearly eighty thousand dollars in scholarships since its inception in 1998; and

Whereas, another highlight of the event is a salute to those who have risked their lives to protect and serve our country; and

Whereas, the members of the Senate, by this resolution, would like to salute Glory Communications and all those associated with "FamilyFest" and the Future Leader Scholarship Fund for making these important events such a success through the years. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate:

That the members of the South Carolina Senate recognize and honor Glory Communications, Inc., on its fifteenth year of presenting the gospel music celebration "FamilyFest" and for sponsoring the "Future Leader Scholarship Fund" presentations held in conjunction with "FamilyFest".

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to Glory Communications, Inc.
