A RESOLUTION
Honoring the Village of Oak Hill
on its One Hundred Fiftieth Anniversary.
WHEREAS, The members of the House of Representatives of the 135th 1
General Assembly of Ohio are pleased to congratulate the Village of 2
Oak Hill on the auspicious occasion of its One Hundred Fiftieth 3
Anniversary; and 4
WHEREAS, America is only as strong as her individual communities, 5
which are unique and which make significant contributions to the 6
culture of our state and nation. Since its inception, the Village of 7
Oak Hill has experienced dramatic growth and change, and yet, 8
commendably, it has retained the many engaging qualities that have 9
endeared it to generations of inhabitants. Clearly, it has built on 10
the best traditions of the past to ensure a future filled with hope 11
and promise; and 12
WHEREAS, Over the past one hundred fifty years, the Village of 13
Oak Hill has enjoyed the benefits of a generous and civic-minded 14
population, and those who currently make the community their home take 15
great pride in its rich heritage. They have exhibited cooperation, 16
integrity, and a willingness to work hard, and their efforts have 17
certainly made the area a pleasant and friendly place in which to 18
live; and 19
WHEREAS, The One Hundred Fiftieth Anniversary of the Village of 20
Oak Hill offers its citizens the opportunity to share their memories 21
and experiences and to reflect on the benefits of life in their close- 22
knit community. A vigorous commitment to public service and an earnest 23
devotion to lofty ideals have long been second nature to many of the 24
village’s residents, and vigilance, industriousness, and generosity 25
have come to typify their collective character; therefore be it 26
