worthwhile project to raise funds for children with disabilities,
culminating in the thirty-ninth annual "B.A.C.-Coffee Day for
Children with Disabilities" in South Carolina on Good Friday,

ably assisted by Major John B. Lee, III, State President, Lieutenant
Colonel Alton T. Morris, "B.A.C." Project Chairman and
John L. Caudle, II, Executive Director, all from the South Carolina Law
Enforcement Officers' Association, and Thomas L. Sponseller,
Executive Director, Harold L. Corley, "B.A.C." Project
Chairman, and J. Ryan Condon, President, from the South Carolina
Restaurant Association, this program is destined to raise thousands of
dollars to aid our very deserving children and assist them in overcoming
their disabilities; and
Whereas, the "B.A.C." buttons go on sale on Friday, March
15, 1991; and
Whereas, the "B.A.C." project and all other programs of the
Easter Seal Society deserve the support, merit, and praise of all citizens
of the State. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:
That Wednesday, March 13, 1991, is designated "Children With

Ambassadors to represent all of our people with disabilities, be

Be it further resolved that the General Assembly extends to the Easter
Seal Society and its many dedicated supporters its sincere wishes for
continued success in its many constructive and compassionate programs
on behalf of people with disabilities.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to
Herman L. Shealy, Jr., Executive Director of the Easter Seal Society, for
distribution to the state chairmen of the various phases of the Easter Seal
campaign and the "B.A.C." project, as well as to the State
Easter Seal Representatives themselves.
