Bill > SR8644

This resolution recognizes the Daffodil Festival, a 92-year-old annual event in Pierce County, Washington, celebrating its rich history and community impact. The festival, which began in the 1920s as a small garden party, has grown into a significant regional tradition that brings communities together and promotes unity. A key aspect of the festival is its royal court, which annually selects 24 young women from local high schools through a rigorous process to serve as ambassadors who demonstrate civic pride, community service, and volunteerism. The resolution specifically honors the 2025 royal court members from various high schools in the area, highlighting their role as positive role models for youth. The Washington State Senate officially recognizes and honors the contributions made by the Daffodil Festival, its organizers, and its royal court over the past 92 years, and directs that copies of the resolution be transmitted to the festival's officers and royal court members.
