A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO CONGRATULATE AND HONOR THE CEDAR CREEK RESORT DEVELOPMENT ON BEING VOTED AIKEN'S CHOICE COMMUNITY WINNER - 2019 BY READERS OF THE AIKEN STANDARD NEWSPAPER.

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is pleased to learn that the Cedar Creek Resort Development has been voted Aiken's Choice Community Winner - 2019 by readers of the Aiken Standard newspaper; and

Whereas, a master planned community in Aiken County, Cedar Creek currently consists of seven hundred seventy homes, with the potential for eleven hundred; and

Whereas, there are numerous reasons for the admiration and respect accorded to Cedar Creek, which governs itself with a resident-elected board of directors. For example, this Fire-Wise community has received a Fire-Wise grant for its efforts, and with approximately one-third of its residents as veterans, Cedar Creek abounds with patriotism. An estimated seventy percent of residents proudly fly the United States flag on holidays, and many do so every day; and

Whereas, further, Cedar Creek Community Center is very active and hosts thirty-six clubs and other organizations. Residents are widely recognized for contributing to, and volunteering time for, their favorite charities, civic groups, and churches; and

Whereas, the men's woodworking group mentors young men at Christ Central to enhance job skills, and the ladies club of Cedar Creek raises thousands of dollars each year for various charities. Cedar Creek is a major collection center for the Marine Corps League's annual Toys for Tots campaign. Cedar Creek residents also organize and conduct their own large Relay for Life fundraiser, the American Cancer Society's signature fundraising event dedicated to helping communities attack cancer; and

Whereas, in addition, Cedar Creek volunteers contribute heavily to the Greendale Elementary Reading Program, resulting in increased elementary reading scores. The Cedar Creek Road Warriors, a litter patrol team, contributes to the South Carolina Palmetto Pride Litter Program and meets regularly to pick up litter along Banks Mill Road and Eagle Road. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, congratulate and honor the Cedar Creek Resort Development on being voted Aiken's Choice Community Winner - 2019 by readers of the Aiken Standard newspaper.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to the Cedar Creek Resort Development Board of Directors.
