THE COMMITTEE ON INVITATIONS

Has polled the Bill out majority favorable.

A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

TO DESIGNATE WEDNESDAY, MARCH 24, 1993, AS "CHILDREN WITH DISABILITIES DAY", TO ENDORSE THE "B.A.C.-COFFEE DAY FOR CHILDREN WITH DISABILITIES" PROJECT AND OTHER OUTSTANDING PROGRAMS OF LIFE ABILITIES, SOUTH CAROLINA SOCIETY FOR CHILDREN AND ADULTS WITH DISABILITIES, INC., AND TO PROVIDE FOR A JOINT SESSION OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY AT 12:00 NOON ON WEDNESDAY, MARCH 24, 1993, AT WHICH TIME THE STATE LIFE ABILITIES AMBASSADORS AND THEIR PARENTS WILL BE PRESENTED TO THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY.

Whereas, Life Abilities has again embarked upon its most worthwhile project to raise funds for children with disabilities, culminating in the forty-first annual "B.A.C.-Coffee Day for Children with Disabilities" in South Carolina on Good Friday, April 9, 1993; and

Whereas, under the statewide leadership of Edwin W. Fisher, State Life Abilities President, and Pattie Just, State Campaign Chairperson, ably assisted by Lt. Jim McClary of SLED, State President and John L. Caudle, II, Executive Director of the South Carolina Law Enforcement Officers' Association, and Thomas L. Sponseller, Executive Director and Buford Hancock, State President of 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 Friday, March 26, 1993; and

Whereas, the "B.A.C." project and all other programs of Life Abilities 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 24, 1993, is designated "Children with Disabilities Day" in South Carolina and that Gerald David Avant, son of Mr. and Mrs. James Avant of Georgetown County; Jennifer Jill Ayers, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Doug Ayers of Anderson County; Crockett Buchanan, son of Ms. Sherry Buchanan of Spartanburg County; Idris Livingston, son of Ms. Betty Livingston of Richland County; and Alexander Thomas Sizemore, son of Mr. and Mrs. Anthony Sizemore of Sumter County, who have been chosen to serve as State Life Abilities Ambassadors, be presented to the General Assembly, along with their parents in a joint session in the Hall of the House of Representatives on Wednesday, March 24, 1993.

Be it further resolved that the General Assembly extends to Life Abilities and its many dedicated supporters its sincere wishes for continued success in its many constructive and compassionate programs on behalf of persons with disabilities.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to Herman L. Shealy, Jr., Executive Director of Life Abilities, for distribution to the state chairmen of the various phases of the Life Abilities campaign and the "B.A.C." project, as well as to the state Life Abilities Ambassadors themselves .
