Bill > HR0348

This resolution congratulates Knight's Action Park, a family-owned entertainment venue in Springfield, Illinois, on its 95-year history of providing recreational services. The resolution traces the park's origins to George W. Knight Sr., a professional golfer who started a golf driving range in the early 1930s, and highlights the park's evolution from a simple golf and archery facility to a diverse entertainment complex featuring waterpark attractions, miniature golf, batting cages, go-karts, and a drive-in theater. The document commends the Knight Family for their entrepreneurial spirit, commitment to community, and dedication to creating affordable, high-quality entertainment while maintaining strong safety standards. By recognizing the contributions of multiple generations of Knights—including George Sr., George Jr., Audrey, Doug, and George—the resolution celebrates the park's legacy of family business and its role in creating cherished memories for Illinois residents and visitors. The resolution concludes by formally congratulating Knight's Action Park and presenting a copy of the resolution to the Knight Family as a token of respect and well-wishes for continued success.
