AI Summary

This resolution recognizes and honors the Old Time Bluegrass and Fiddlers' Jamboree, a long-standing community event in Holladay, Tennessee that has been running for 67 years since its founding in 1957. Originally started by a high school senior class as a fundraiser, the jamboree has become a significant cultural celebration that showcases the talents of fiddlers from Tennessee and surrounding states. A key highlight of the event is the annual West Tennessee Fiddlers' Championship, held on the third Saturday in April, which is considered the premier fiddlers' competition in the Volunteer State. The resolution emphasizes the jamboree's commitment to preserving the heritage of old-time and fiddle music, and it formally extends recognition and best wishes for the event's continued success. Additionally, the resolution includes a provision for preparing an official copy of the document for presentation, with specific instructions about how the text should be formatted when requested.
