        COMMENDING  Mohawk  Honda  upon  the  occasion  of
        celebrating its 100th Anniversary

  WHEREAS, It is the sense  of  this  Legislative  Body  to  recognize
illustrious   local   businesses  which  have  positively  impacted  and
substantially contributed  to  the  vitality  of  their  communities  by
providing  quality  products  and  service and engaging in philanthropic
endeavors; and

  WHEREAS, Attendant to such concern, and  in  full  accord  with  its
long-standing  traditions,  this  Legislative  Body  is  justly proud to
commend Mohawk Honda in the Town  of  Glenville  upon  the  occasion  of
celebrating its 100th Anniversary; and

  WHEREAS,  Joseph  Haraden  first  opened  Mohawk  Honda  in 1919 and
through  the  years,  Mohawk  Honda  has  been   serving   the   Albany,
Schenectady,  Clifton  Park,  Saratoga  Springs,  and Latham communities
selling many different models,  meeting  generations  of  families,  and
doing  it  all  by making sure they always satisfy the customer's needs;
and

  WHEREAS, Family owned and operated, Mohawk Honda believes that being
a part of their community is more than just helping someone find  a  new
or  used  vehicle,  donating their time and resources to help many local
groups and charities like the Deanna Rivers  Foundation,  University  of
Albany,  The Chris Stewart Foundation, the Mohawk Hudson Humane Society,
and many others; and

  WHEREAS, In addition to monetary donations,  Mohawk  Honda's  nearly
200  employees  regularly  commit  to serving a total of 10,000 hours of
community service annually; and

  WHEREAS, Standing strong for those who have no voice,  Mohawk  Honda
and  the  Haraden  family  regularly  host pet adoption clinics at their
location in the Town of Glenville to help  countless  companion  animals
find forever homes; and

  WHEREAS, Mohawk Honda has been recognized among the top five percent
of  Honda dealers in the nation for outstanding performance in sales and
customer service receiving the coveted Honda Masters  Circle  Award  for
four consecutive years; and

  WHEREAS,  During  10 decades of the dealership's development, Mohawk
Honda has sought to uphold the highest moral integrity in all aspects of
the automobile  business  and  is  extremely  proud  of  its  nationally
renowned reputation in customer satisfaction; and

  WHEREAS,  It  is  with  great  pleasure  that  this Legislative Body
acknowledges this exceptional business  and  its  contributions  to  the
local  and  state  economies,  fully  confident that it will continue to
enjoy the successes it has experienced thus far in the  years  to  come;
now, therefore, be it

  RESOLVED,  That  this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
commend  Mohawk  Honda  upon  the  occasion  of  celebrating  its  100th
Anniversary; and be it further

  RESOLVED,  That  copies  of  this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to Mohawk Honda, and members of the Haraden Family.
