  WHEREAS,  In  the  course of the evolving development of this Empire
State, if the ingredients of  shared  concern  and  responsive  endeavor
combine  in  the  commitment  to  society,  there have emerged among the
distinguished citizens of the State of New  York  certain  organizations
which warrant special recognition; and

  WHEREAS,  It  is the sense of this Legislative Body to commend those
illustrious organizations of the State  of  New  York  whose  focus  and
intent  have  made  a substantial impact on the quality of life in their
communities; and

  WHEREAS, Attendant to such concern, and  in  full  accord  with  its
long-standing  traditions,  this  Legislative  Body  is  justly proud to
commemorate the 75th  Anniversary  of  the  Delaware  County  Historical
Association,  to  be  celebrated  throughout  the year, beginning at the
Diamond Jubilee Gala, July 25-26, 2020; and

  WHEREAS,  The  Delaware  County  Historical  Association,   commonly
referred  to  as  DCHA,  is  located  in  Delhi, New York, and serves to
continue its mission of  collecting  and  preserving  items  which  help
explain the history of Delaware County; and

  WHEREAS, Throughout 2020, DCHA will be holding a myriad of events to
celebrate this tremendous milestone, including an old-time radio show, a
soldier's canteen, square dances, as well as themed trips, exhibits, and
workshops; and

  WHEREAS,  Furthermore,  DCHA  will  expand  the museum's library and
archives building which was completed by SUNY Delhi  students  in  1976,
and is currently at maximum capacity; and

  WHEREAS,  Over  its  distinguished  75-year  history,  the  DCHA has
demonstrated continuous service to the residents and  communities  which
it serves; and

  WHEREAS,  The  success  of  the DCHA is in direct correlation to the
efforts of its staff and volunteers, whose involvement  is,  and  always
has  been,  characterized  by  an  impressive  commitment,  an unbridled
enthusiasm,  and  an  uncompromising  standard  of  excellence  in   all
endeavors on behalf of the organization and the community it serves; and

  WHEREAS,  This  auspicious occasion presents an opportunity for this
Legislative Body to recognize and pay tribute to DCHA; and

  WHEREAS, In light  of  its  commitment,  dedication  and  successful
efforts, it is the custom of this Legislative Body to extend its highest
commendation to DCHA of Delhi, New York; now, therefore, be it

  RESOLVED,  That  this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
commemorate the 75th  Anniversary  of  the  Delaware  County  Historical
Association; and be it further
