A senate RESOLUTION

TO CONGRATULATE SCOUTING AMERICA TROOP 303 UPON THE 
OCCASION OF ITS SEVENTY-FIFTH ANNIVERSARY AND TO COMMEND SCOUTING AMERICA TROOP 
303 FOR ITS MANY YEARS OF DEDICATED ENGAGEMENT IN THE KERSHAW COUNTY COMMUNITY.

Whereas, the members of 
the South Carolina Senate are pleased to recognize Scouting America Troop 303 of 
Camden as it celebrates this important milestone; and

Whereas, Scouting 
America provides the nation's foremost youth program of character development 
and values-based leadership training, which helps young people be "Prepared. 
For Life." The mission of Scouting America is to prepare young people to make 
ethical and moral choices over their lifetimes by instilling in them the values 
of the Scout Oath and Scout Law; and

Whereas, Scouting 
America Troop 303 has been in continuous operation since its original charter 
in February 1950, providing leadership development, training in skills and 
abilities, and valuable character-building opportunities to thousands of Scouts; 
and

Whereas, Scouting is an 
individualized program of goal setting and achievement where Scouts experience 
democracy in action through peer leadership; and

Whereas, in the 
Scouting program, young people learn the basics of citizenship, first aid, 
physical fitness, outdoor skills plus over one hundred other career or 
hobby-related topics through the merit badge program; and

Whereas, the Scouting 
program is delivered through charter organizations that operate Scouting units 
to deliver the programs to their youth as well as the community at large. These 
organizations are run by adult volunteers who are dedicated to helping young 
people learn and grow; and

Whereas, volunteers 
have always been the bedrock of the Scouting program. Behind every trustworthy, 
loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, and kind Scout is a long line of committed 
volunteers who share those same traits; and

Whereas, Lyttleton 
Street United Methodist Church in Camden has faithfully discharged its duties 
as a charter organization, providing countless hours of dedicated support, 
time, facilities, and resources to enable Scouts and parents of Troop 303 to 
achieve their personal goals; and

Whereas, the members of 
the South Carolina Senate greatly appreciate the dedication and commitment of Scouting 
America Troop 303 to serving the people and the State of South Carolina. Now, 
therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate:

That the members of the South Carolina Senate, by this resolution, congratulate Scouting 
America Troop 303 upon the occasion of its seventy-fifth anniversary and 
commend Scouting America Troop 303 for its many years of engagement in the 
Kershaw County community.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this 
resolution be presented to Scouting America Troop 303.
