Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives are pleased to learn that Jamie Scott was honored by the city of Columbia as a winner of the Office of Business Opportunities Business Spotlight program; and

Whereas, now thirty-four years old, he first embarked on his fitness career after his Gamecock football days and then started training the football team at the Hammond School in Columbia. Soon after, he was asked to develop an in-house fitness and wellness program for the Washington, D. C. office of commercial real estate developer EDENS; and

Whereas, his personal health and wellness philosophy puts education first in order to develop a successful plan to achieve his client's goals; and
Whereas, in a gym that bursts with bright colors and large exercise spaces, lined with dumbbells, plyo boxes, medicine balls, and indoor cycles, Jamie Scott Fitness offers a variety of classes, including nutrition and cooking, and barre, cardio, and weight training; and
Whereas, he searches for the best equipment and fitness trends to adapt to his programs, which use TRX suspension cables, a live heart monitor for group workouts, and wall yoga, a twist on the traditional poses using the wall for support; and
Whereas, his recent selection as a winner of the City of Columbia's Office of Business Opportunities Business Spotlight program will provide him with a free scholarship to the NxLevel Micro Entrepreneur Business Class for the next year and free marketing opportunities, such as commercials or a display placed on Main Street; and
Whereas, with a new location near the State House called SWEAT that offers a full-body indoor cycling workout, Mr. Scott recently received a proclamation from the city for his business success at the city's National Small Business Week conference; and
Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives appreciates the successful commercial ventures that Jamie Scott has brought to his community and his commitment to the health of his clients, and the members look to hear of his continued accomplishments in the days ahead. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
