COMMITTEE REPORT
May 15, 1991
H. 3938
Introduced by REPS. P. Harris, Waldrop and Neilson
S. Printed 5/15/91--S.
Read the first time May 7, 1991.
To whom was referred a Concurrent Resolution (H. 3938), to designate the week beginning May 5, 1991, as "Older South Carolinian Week", etc., respectfully
That they have duly and carefully considered the same, and recommend that the same do pass:
THOMAS L. MOORE, for Committee.
TO DESIGNATE THE WEEK BEGINNING MAY 5, 1991, AS "OLDER SOUTH CAROLINIAN WEEK" AND TO REQUEST THE GOVERNOR TO CALL UPON THE PEOPLE OF THIS STATE TO OBSERVE THE WEEK WITH APPROPRIATE CEREMONIES AND ACTIVITIES.
Whereas, love, respect, and admiration for the aged have always been basic philosophical principles of western civilization; and
Whereas, the contributions of older Americans and their families represent the strength and future of our nation and have resulted in the growth and prosperity of our society at both the state and national levels; and
Whereas, a week designated for the purpose of focusing on the needs and value of older people and the community services available to them will be beneficial to older adults age sixty years and over, who comprise a rich segment of the state's population. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:
That the week beginning May 5, 1991, is designated "Older South Carolinian Week", and Governor Carroll A. Campbell is requested to call upon the people of this State to observe the week with appropriate ceremonies and activities.
