TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR JUMPER CARTER SEASE ARCHITECTS OF LEXINGTON COUNTY FOR THEIR SIGNIFICANT CONTRIBUTIONS TO ARCHITECTURE IN SOUTH CAROLINA, AND TO CONGRATULATE THEM AS THEY CELEBRATE TWENTY-FIVE YEARS OF PROVIDING OUTSTANDING ARCHITECTURAL SERVICES.

Whereas, Craig Jumper joined Mr. Drafts in 1970, and the firm was renamed Drafts and Jumper. In 1991, Jumper Carter Sease came into existence when Joel M. Carter and L.

Whereas, an exemplary corporate citizen, Jumper Carter Sease operates with the goal of strengthening the historic foundation of the community through continuous focus on client relationships and collaborative design practices; and
Whereas, the firm consistently demonstrates a steadfast commitment to design excellence and serving clients through open communication and collaboration, architectural innovation, and a passion for creating architecture that enhances their clients' goals and missions; and

Whereas, the numerous landmark architectural contributions of Jumper Carter Sease include Riverbanks Zoo and Garden, Lexington Medical Center, River Bluff High School, and West Columbia City Hall; and
Whereas, with deep appreciation, the Senate commends the quarter of a century that Jumper Carter Sease Architects has offered exceptional architectural quality, and the members wish the firm continued success in the years ahead. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the Senate:
