The resolution honors Roger Jasnoch, the Director of the Kearney Visitors Bureau, for his thirty-eight years of dedicated service to Kearney and Buffalo County, during which he significantly contributed to the local tourism industry. His efforts include the establishment of key community projects such as the Kearney Area Community Foundation, the Archway, the Viaero Center, and the American Automobile Experience. Additionally, he played a pivotal role in relocating the Nebraska Senior Games to Kearney in 1989, where the event continues to take place.

As Roger prepares for retirement in June, the resolution acknowledges his impactful legacy and previous recognition, including the Nebraska Tourism Commission's Henry Fonda Award for his leadership and vision. The Nebraska Legislature expresses its congratulations to Roger Jasnoch for receiving the Celebrate Tourism Award and plans to send him a copy of the resolution as a token of appreciation for his contributions to the community.
