A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

TO HONOR KALYN LEWIS AND AMY LEWIS, BOTH OF CHARLESTON COUNTY, FOR THEIR EXCEPTIONAL SPELLING PROWESS, TO CONGRATULATE KALYN FOR CAPTURING THE 2010 CHARLESTON COUNTY SCHOOL DISTRICT SPELLING BEE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE AND EARNING THE RIGHT TO COMPETE IN THE SPELLBOUND! REGIONAL SPELLING BEE ON MARCH 11, 2010, AND TO CONGRATULATE AMY FOR EARNING FIRST RUNNER-UP HONORS IN THE DISTRICT SPELLING BEE.

Whereas, having previously won her school competition, Kalyn Lewis, an eighth grader at Sanders-Clyde Elementary/Middle School, captured the 2010 Charleston County School District Spelling Bee Championship title on January 22, 2010; and

Whereas, the soft-spoken Kalyn flawlessly spelled the final word of the evening, "canine", to take first place at the competition, viewed by a packed audience; and

Whereas, gracefully accepting the position of first runner-up in the district bee, Kalyn's sixth-grade sister, Amy, also garnered her share of congratulations; and

Whereas, Amy's impressive first runner-up honors are a certain predictor of continued success in future district spelling bees; and

Whereas, the sisters competed in a field of thirty-nine school winners to come out on top; and

Whereas, on March 11, 2010, in the Lightsey Chapel at Charleston Southern University, Kalyn will move to the next level of the competition, Spellbound!, a regional spelling bee sponsored by the Post and Courier; and

Whereas, the members of the General Assembly, in full confidence that Kalyn Lewis will distinguish herself admirably, with great pleasure and pride extend to this fine young lady best wishes as she continues the competition. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:

That the members of the South Carolina General Assembly, by this resolution, honor Kalyn Lewis and Amy Lewis, both of Charleston County, for their exceptional spelling prowess, congratulate Kalyn for capturing the 2010 Charleston County School District Spelling Bee Championship title and earning the right to compete in the Spellbound! regional spelling bee on March 11, 2010, and congratulate Amy for earning first runner-up honors in the district spelling bee.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to Kalyn and Amy Lewis.
