Whereas, the Optimist Club of St. Andrews-Irmo has contributed over half a million dollars to worthy causes that positively impact the lives of innumerable young people since its inception.

Corley Elementary Schools. In return, the club enjoys active support from the communities it serves and is able to develop healthy partnerships in key areas, such as with local schools; and

Whereas, currently supported by thirty-nine members who joyfully espouse the Optimist Creed, the Optimist Club of St. Andrews-Irmo has played an important role in supporting the youth of this State for the last fifty years; and

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina General Assembly congratulate the Optimist Club of St. Andrews-Irmo on its fiftieth anniversary and recognizes the club for its fifty years of exemplary promotion of positive values and community service, particularly for instilling in young people the value of aiding and encouraging the proper development of those who are younger than themselves. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:
