WHEREAS, history was made on March 24, 2007 at Morris Brown´s Herndon Stadium with the first annual A-Town Day; and WHEREAS, this spectacular event benefiting Children´s Healthcare of Atlanta, the Tupac Armaru Shakur Center for Performing Arts, and the Atlanta Braves Foundation is the largest outdoor community, health, outreach, concert, and awareness festival in the City of Atlanta; and WHEREAS, delivering positive information in a positive atmosphere is the purpose of A-Town Day, which provides a day designed for the entire family to celebrate the City of Atlanta in an uplifting way that makes a difference in the lives of all who participate; and WHEREAS, the second annual A-Town Day to be held on March 22, 2008, at Turner Field is made possible by its many sponsors who recognize the importance of this inspirational activity as a way of not only educating and motivating the citizens of the City of Atlanta and surrounding areas but also benefiting countless individuals who will be helped by the money that is raised on behalf of Children´s Healthcare of Atlanta, the Tupac Armaru Shakur Center for Performing Arts, and the Atlanta Braves Foundation; and
WHEREAS, it is fitting and proper that this body join in recognizing this monumental event. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES that the members of this body join together in recognizing A-Town Day as a positive event for the City of Atlanta and the State of Georgia and commend its sponsors for their support of such an inspired, informative, and family oriented festival.
