WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to | ||
recognize the Austin Saengerrunde Damenchor on the grand | ||
occasion of the choral group's 60th anniversary; and | ||
WHEREAS, The Saengerrunde Damenchor was organized in 1959 | ||
as part of the Austin Saengerrunde Club, a German singing club | ||
known today as one of the oldest cultural organizations in | ||
Austin; and | ||
WHEREAS, The Damenchor, or women's choir, was established | ||
to help the club promote interest in the preservation of German | ||
song; the choir gained recognition for hosting an annual | ||
Christmas concert and for performing at the annual German Texan | ||
Saengerfest of the Deutsch-Texanischer Saengerbund, an event | ||
that continues to bring together German choirs from around the | ||
state each year; and | ||
WHEREAS, On May 5, 2019, the Austin Saengerrunde Club is | ||
hosting the 73rd Saengertag of the Deutsch-Texanischer | ||
Saengerbund at the club's historic Saengerrunde Halle; German | ||
choirs in Texas will gather to showcase their exceptional talents | ||
and to promote the preservation of German culture and language in | ||
Texas; and | ||
WHEREAS, Members of the Saengerrunde Damenchor are part of | ||
a proud history in Austin, and it is indeed fitting that their | ||
beloved Saengerrunde Halle will serve as the venue for the annual | ||
Saengerfest during the year that marks the choir's 60th | ||
anniversary; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 86th | ||
Legislature, hereby commend the members of the Austin | ||
Saengerrunde Damenchor for 60 years of success in promoting | ||
German culture and heritage in the Lone Star State and extend to | ||
all best wishes for a memorable 73rd Saengertag of the | ||
Deutsch-Texanischer Saengerbund; and, be it further | ||
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for | ||
the choir as an expression of esteem from the Texas Senate. | ||
