RESOLUTION


    A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION honoring Mr. Daniel Kent on receiving the Prudential Spirit of Community Award for his tireless work and dedication in volunteer service, peer leadership and community spirit.

    Whereas, Daniel Kent, a resident of Carmel and a student at Carmel Junior High School, has achieved national recognition for exemplary volunteer service by receiving a 2003 Prudential Spirit of Community Award;

    Whereas, this prestigious award, presented by Prudential Financial in partnership with the National Association of Secondary School Principals, honors young volunteers across America who have demonstrated an extraordinary commitment to serving their communities;

    Whereas, in 2003, 104 State Honorees were chosen from over 24,000 applicants. Each award recipient will travel to Washington, D.C. in May for several national recognition events, culminating with the recognition of 10 National Honorees chosen by a national selection committee;

    Whereas, Mr. Kent earned this award by giving generously of his time and energy to Y-Press, a children's news service sponsored by the Indianapolis Star, and as a member of the Indianapolis Children's Museum's Youth Advisory Council; and
        

    Whereas, the success of the State of Indiana, the strength of our communities, and the overall vitality of American society depend, in great measure, upon the dedication of young people like Mr. Kent who use their considerable talents and resources to serve others: Therefore,
             

Be it resolved by the Senate of the General Assembly

of the State of Indiana, the House of Representatives concurring:
