H. 4458

TO MEMORIALIZE THE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE GREER CITY COUNCIL TO NAME TEDWALL COURT IN GREER "NORTH AMERICAN RESCUE BOULEVARD".

Whereas, located at 35 Tedwall Court in Greer, South Carolina, North American Rescue, LLC (NAR) is the premier developer and manufacturer of lifesaving medical and rescue solutions dedicated to increasing survivability on the battlefield, in combat zones, and on the streets of America; and

Whereas, since its inception in 1996, NAR has been empowering uniformed soldiers, first responders, tactical healthcare professionals, and law enforcement personnel with critical medical rescue equipment for the management of traumatic injuries in challenging environments; and

Whereas, an essential part of the NAR culture is its philanthropic giving program, "Operation Giveback," which has donated more than $17 million primarily to support wounded warriors and their families. As "Partners in Empowerment," the company's relationship with the South Carolina Vocational Rehabilitation Department provides jobs and training for their clients who face a myriad of disabilities; and

Whereas, NAR has been honored with a number of awards that include a certificate of appreciation in recognition of a K-9 Tactical Field Kit donation made to Southeast K-9 Search and Rescue, which enables handlers to provide lifesaving treatment to injured canines at the point of injury; and the Defense Logistics Agency Outstanding Readiness Support Award for the company's efforts in providing quality products and services to America's war fighters for their daily operations; and

Whereas, to recognize the tremendous impact North American Rescue, LLC has had on the lives of the citizens of Greer, Greenville County, the State of South Carolina, and this this nation, it would be fitting to name Tedwall Court in the City of Greer in its honor. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That members of the House of Representatives, by this resolution, memorialize the Mayor and members of the Greer City Council to name Tedwall Court in Greer "North American Rescue Boulevard".

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to City of Greer Mayor Rick Danner and the members of the Greer City Council.
