S. Printed 3/25/93--H.
Read the first time March 23, 1993.
To whom was referred a Concurrent Resolution (S. 565), to designate the week beginning October 17, 1993, as "South Carolina Children's Week", etc., respectfully
That they have duly and carefully considered the same, and recommend that the same do pass:
DEWITT WILLIAMS, for Committee.
TO DESIGNATE THE WEEK BEGINNING OCTOBER 17, 1993, AS "SOUTH CAROLINA CHILDREN'S WEEK" AND TO REQUEST THE GOVERNOR TO CALL UPON THE PEOPLE OF THIS STATE TO OBSERVE THE WEEK WITH APPROPRIATE CEREMONIES AND ACTIVITIES.
Whereas, thirty percent of the population of South Carolina is children; and
Whereas, the children of South Carolina are our most precious resource and our greatest hope for the future; and
Whereas, the children of South Carolina deserve our most concerted efforts on their behalf to enrich their lives and provide better opportunities for their future; and
Whereas, the children of South Carolina are our most vulnerable citizens and are reliant on adults and adult systems for their care and well-being and recognition of their needs; and
Whereas, a week designated for the purpose of focusing on the needs of children and the community services available to them will be beneficial both to the children and to the future of South Carolina. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the Senate, the House of Representatives concurring:
That the week beginning October 17, 1993, is designated "South Carolina Children's 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.
