PROCLAMAT ION
CITY OF THE COLONY, TEXAS
WHEREAS, individual and organized forms of recreation and the creative
use of free time have gained growing importance in the lives of all
Americans as they find more and more time freed for personal pursuits; and
WHEREAS, organized sports is only one avenue of recreation; rather rec-
reation encompasses a myraid of activities that result in satisfaction and
family unity; and
WHEREAS, recreation is not confined to the young and those with great
physical prowess, but can be pursued by persons of all ages in programs
of arts and crafts, tourism, cultural endeavors and nature studies; and
WHEREAS, the Life. Be In It. program, unlike others of its genre, pro-
motes a zestful approach to life in general through the encouragement of
a broad range of inexpensive recreation activities that do not demand
special instructions or special equipment; and
WHEREAS, the Life. Be In It. program, in its most far-reaching benefits,
can help combat the problems of juvenile delinquency, disabling old age
and general depression by subtly highlighting new avenues of interest to
every individual in the community.
NOW, THEREFORE, Be it Proclaimed that the City Council of The City of
The Colony hereby endorses the Life. Be In It. program and urges citi-
zens to relish the wonders of nature around them.
