| aging, which was very helpful to me personally as I was a caregiver for more than one family member. So it was nice to know what's | 00:18:38 | |
| out there to help you do that particular role. And I particularly enjoyed the art show that we have started with our people over | 00:18:45 | |
| 50 to participate in and it's been wonderful to see. | 00:18:52 | |

| That that need assistance and so it's really wonderful that you're willing to take the time and help with with our aging | 00:20:01 | |
| population because really I mean that's that's so important it's it's what got us to all where we are today right because of | 00:20:07 | |
| parents and grandparents that. | 00:20:12 | |
| Raised us and taught us the values that we needed to be able to get to where we're at. So thank you for helping and working with | 00:20:19 | |

| Sure, if everybody wants to be great. | 00:21:31 | |
| But nothing before that. | 00:21:58 | |
| We ready? | 00:22:01 | |
| 1/2. | 00:22:03 | |
| 3123. | 00:22:06 | |
| OK. Thank you. | 00:22:10 | |
| All right. That concludes presentations and takes us on to proclamations. This is a big day here. | 00:22:37 | |
| This is Erie Tigers Day and I'm pretty excited to see our Erie Tigers in the audience. We're going to celebrate the Class 4A | 00:22:43 | |
| football and cheerleading state championships, so I'm going to read a few proclamations and we'll do them individually. | 00:22:50 | |
| Whereas the Erie Tigers football team competed in the Class 4A state championship game on December 2nd, 2023 at Canvas Stadium in | 00:22:59 | |
| Fort Collins. | 00:23:03 | |
| And whereas against the Palmer Ridge Bears, the Tigers shine. Senior quarterback Blake Barnett scored two touchdowns and | 00:23:08 | |
| intercepted a pass on defense. The Tigers defense stopped the Bears momentum in the fourth quarter to earn a 20 to 6 state | 00:23:15 | |
| championship victory and whereas the victory showed grit, determination and teamwork to achieve a goal. | 00:23:21 | |
| In previous seasons, Eerie advanced deep in the playoffs only to fall short of the championship. This year, they'll continue | 00:23:28 | |
| practice and improvement. The Tigers completed their team model of unfinished business to earn their first football state | 00:23:34 | |
| championship since 1997, and whereas those characteristics great determination. | 00:23:41 | |
| Are ones in which we take the most pride. Yes, the athletic achievements are certainly special. However, the traits used to | 00:23:48 | |
| succeed athletically will also be needed later in life. The fact that your young people are utilizing them to win state | 00:23:53 | |
| championships as is confident they can achieve even greater things moving forward. | 00:23:59 | |
| Now therefore, be a proclaimed by the Boardwalk County Commissioners that the 29th day of January 2024 be known as Erie Tigers | 00:24:05 | |
| Day. Congratulations on the championship season signed by all 5 County Commissioners, coach and players. If you'd like to come to | 00:24:11 | |
| the podium, we can help to have you up here for a moment. | 00:24:17 | |
| I know. Coach, do you have a few words you'd like to share? Yes, Yes. First of all, thank you for inviting us and and recognizing | 00:24:43 | |
| us. We really appreciate it. We also have to congratulate our coaches. Ross. | 00:24:50 | |
| Six times they 10 cheerleaders, they set the standard at the high school or chase them. Now we're trying to get through where they | 00:24:58 | |
| are, but these young men? | 00:25:03 | |
| What you said is very accurate of these young men and the work they put in this year. | 00:25:10 | |
| And the togetherness that they they created throughout the years was uncommon and the results showed at the end in that game was a | 00:25:17 | |
| testament to them and and everything they put into the season. | 00:25:23 | |
| So rather than and once again, really appreciate you for having us here. | 00:25:30 | |

| back-to-back weekends, so the weekend before our state championship we were at theirs and I don't think they know, but honestly | 00:33:40 | |
| it's hard to get my kids to focus on their own state championship because they were so excited for football state championships, | 00:33:46 | |
| so. | 00:33:53 | |
| It was fun to share that and have those back-to-back weekends of celebration, but this team is special. Obviously 6 state | 00:33:59 | |

| other. | 00:34:15 | |
| Anytime. But it is fun to watch them come together and be able to hold each other accountable when it really matters to get things | 00:34:18 | |
| accomplished. Practice Senate competition. So they're really special group. | 00:34:25 | |
| It's awesome. Thank you Coach, and if someone from the team wants to say something then after that I'll have everyone go through | 00:34:32 | |
