TRIBUTE TO THE LAKE CITY HOUSING AUTHORITY ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT AND
RECOGNITION CEREMONY
______
HON. JAMES E. CLYBURN
of south carolina
in the house of representatives
Thursday, August 2, 2001
Mr. CLYBURN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the Fifth Annual
Academic Achievement and Recognition Ceremony, being sponsored by the
Lake City Housing Authority for the housing resident students of Lake
City, Johnsonville, and Kingstree. This special ceremony will be held
on August 5, 2001 in Lake City, South Carolina.
The purpose of the ceremony is to honor housing residents who have
achieved academic excellence during the prior school year, and to
recognize those who have obtained high school diplomas or college
degrees. Special recognition will also be given to several individuals
who ranked at the top of their classes. This innovative event has
become an anticipated occasion for both the housing residents and the
community. I commend Mr. Ronald L. Poston, Executive Director of the
Lake City Housing Authority, and the Board of Commissioners of the
Authority for instigating this creative, community-oriented occasion.
Mr. Speaker, I ask you to join me today in honoring the Fifth Annual
Academic Achievement and Recognition Ceremony. It is events such as
this that hold our communities together, strengthen our future, and
promote our values. I sincerely thank Mr. Ronald Poston and the Board
of Commissioners of the Lake City Housing Authority for designing and
implementing this innovative and important ceremony, and congratulate
those students who will receive recognition this year.
