HOUSE JOINT RESOLUTION 1469
By Powell
A RESOLUTION to recognize the grand opening of a Nashville-
themed show performed by the Country Bear Musical Jamboree at Walt Disney World.
WHEREAS, Tennessee is proud to be in possession of a cultural heritage that is
appreciated and emulated throughout the country and around the globe; and WHEREAS, opening in the summer of this year in Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando,
Florida, is a new show performed by the beloved Country Bear Musical Jamboree, one that pays homage to the Opry-style shows of Nashville; and WHEREAS, while the Country Bear Musical Jamboree will include Easter eggs from the beginning to the end, including a familiar tune fans may remember, the bears will sing new,
reinterpreted Disney tunes in different genres of country music, such as bluegrass, pop-country,
Americana, and rockabilly; and WHEREAS, Country Bear Jamboree is one of the very last attractions that Walt Disney personally helped develop; originally planned for a never-built Disney ski resort in Mineral King,
California, the show with the singing bears happily moved to Florida's Magic Kingdom park at
Walt Disney World, opening on October 1, 1971; and WHEREAS, it is most fitting that we celebrate the premier of this new show at one of
Walt Disney World's most beloved attractions; now, therefore,
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE ONE HUNDRED
THIRTEENTH GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF TENNESSEE, THE SENATE
CONCURRING, that we recognize the grand opening of the Country Bear Musical Jamboree Nashville-themed show this summer, extending our best wishes for the show's success.
