Whereas, a sense of pride and involvement in the Gilbert Community has developed through the efforts of Mr. and Mrs. Boozer and is strengthened as community residents work together toward common goals under dedicated leadership; and
Whereas, with their unending devotion to the community and the festival, the Boozers have helped the Peach Festival, one of the first events in the Midlands of South Carolina that began as a small community festival, become one of the oldest and largest statewide events; and
Whereas, the 46th Annual Lexington County Peach Festival will be held on July 3, 2004, is sponsored by the Gilbert Community Club and held in the Gilbert Community Park and promotes the "Peach", the area peach industry, and promotes patriotism among all; and
