Senate Joint Resolution 515, sponsored by Southerland, honors Lily Brake, a student at North Greene Middle School, for her exceptional achievement in winning first place in the Baileyton Veterans Memorial sign design contest. This contest, which attracted 147 entries from students, invited participants to create a new road sign honoring the service and sacrifice of veterans. Lily's winning design, which features an American flag, the silhouette of an eagle, and lyrics from the national anthem, was recognized during a meeting of the Baileyton Board of Mayor and Aldermen, where she was celebrated alongside other top entrants.

The resolution commends Lily Brake for her creativity, civic spirit, and artistic talent, highlighting her contribution as a source of pride for her family, school, and community. It expresses the General Assembly's best wishes for her future endeavors and calls for an appropriate copy of the resolution to be prepared for presentation.
