Senate Joint Resolution 460, sponsored by Harshbarger, honors the members of the John Adams Elementary School Destination Imagination team, known as the Cheezy Kings, for their remarkable achievement in winning first place at the 2025 State Tournament.

The resolution emphasizes the pride that the team's success brings to their community and the State of Tennessee, recognizing their dedication to excellence and the skills they have demonstrated throughout the competition. It expresses admiration for their ingenuity and tenacity, wishing them continued success in their future endeavors. The resolution concludes with a directive for an appropriate copy to be prepared for presentation.
