FROCLAMATIOI
Whereas,
our Founding Fathers, in order to secure the blessings of liberty for
themselves and their posterity, did ordain and establish a
Constitution for the United States; and,
Whereas,
it is important that all citizens fully understand the provisions and
principles contained in the Constitution in order to effectively
support, preserve, and defend it against all enemies; and,
Whereas,
September 17, 2000, marks the two hundred thirteenth anniversary
of the drafting of the Constitution of the United states of America by
the Constitutional Convention; and,
Whereas,
it is fitting and proper to accord official recognition to this
magnificent document and its memorable anniversary, and to the
patriotic celebrations which will commemorate the occasion; and,
Whereas,
the independence guaranteed to American citizens, whether by
birth or naturalization, should be celebrated by appropriate
ceremonies and activities during Constitution Week, September 17
through 23, 2000, as designated by proclamation of the President
of the United States of America in accordance with Public Law 915.
Now, Therefore, Be It Resolved that I, Stephanie Klinzing, Mayor of the City of
Elk River, do hereby proclaim the week of September 17 through 23, 2000, as
CONSTITUTION WEEK
in the City of Elk River.
Passed and adopted by the City Council of the City of Elk River this 11m day
of September, 2000.
Stephanie A. Klinzing, Mayor
